JESUS BUST WITH HIS MINISTIIT
OF LOTE
CESSON text—Mark l;S-45. '
golden TEXT—I must work th« work!
of him that sent me. whUe It U day: the
nlfht cometh, when no man can work.—
John 9:4.
FAQK MINI
Jesus said that He “must work
the works of him that sent him”
(John 9:4). And so we And Him go
ing straightway about His Father’s
business. It is a good example He
has set for us.
What He did and how He did it
will give ua many ’ossons which we
may apply to our service. We can
not do exactly what He did, but in
His power we may do mighty«works.
He flnd» our Lord doing lour im
portant things—
I. Healing (w. ;’.2-34).
We will do well to include verses
29*31 in our thinki-.'», lor there we
find our lord tenderly sharing the
sorrow of the home of a friend. One
can picture the anxious hush that
hovered over the home as distressed
relatives and friends sought to al
leviate the suffering of the one with
a fever. They knew the possibility
of a serious outcome of the illnesa.
Many of us have gone through that
dark valley. All at once there was
new hope, and sooir there was Joy.
Jesus had come and had brought
healing. Many of us have also
had that blessed experience.
(Christianity is not a selfish faith.
If it follows its Lord. We see in
verses 32 to 84 that all the city
cagie to His obor with the diseased
and demon-possessed, and He healed
them all.
The account of the kindly and in
telligent care of the sick is written
large on the pages of the history of
the Christian church. We 4o not
have His divine touch of immediate
healing, but we may have His com
passion which served the multitude
with tenderness and kindness.
II. Praying (w. 35-37).
The Son of God sought out a place
and a time for prayer communionT
with His Father. How often we who
profess to follow Him fail to pray
at all. Certainly we need the grace
and power that prayer can bring far
more than Jesus did. But, we say,
we are so busy. So was He. We
are tired. So was He. People will
not let us alone. They also fol
lowed Him. We make excuaaa^ but
we have no real reasons for our un
fortunate delinquency.
An men were seeking Him (v.
37), but still He took the needed
time to pray. It has been said that
“if you are too busy to p^ay, you
are busier than God ever / intended
you to be.^
When His disciples wanted Him,
they had to look for Him in the
place of prayer. C!hristian workers
and pastors, do people find us there?
III. Preaching (w. 38, 39).
Jesus said, “Let us go . . . that I
may preach . . . fw therefore came
I forth.” It bears repetition” that
while Jesus did'many miracles (and
not for a moment would we detract
from their worth and glory), ye\ He
repeatedly, by mord and act, empha
sized the importance of preaching.
Foolish though it may seem to the
natural man (I Cor. 1:18-25), preach
ing the gospel in 4he power ot the
Holy Spirit is now, as it has been
through the centuries, God’s chosen
means of accomplishing His pur
pose. What « pity that churches
and pastors are forsaking it for
book reviews, dramas, social hours,
forums, and what not I
God give us a Kvlval of great,
humble, and fearless preach!^ of
the WordI i*
IV. Cleansing (w. 40-45).
There is a sense to which the
cleansing of the leper was another
act of healing, but leprosy is such
a striking type of sin that the inci
dent calls for special ctmsideration.
Leprosy is like sin in that it is a
destructive malady that pursues its
insidious way without revealing its
true nature until it Is far advanced.
It renders s man unclsan, lostL
(omc to himself end dangerous to
Dthers. At Isast such it was in ttie
lays of our Leed.
Was tiiere than no hope tor tha
leper? Tea; Jesus had come. Tha
ii^ttan man criad out, “If thou
vilt, thou canst make me cleaa.**'
^d Jesus said, *1 wiU^ . . . and
le was cleansed.'*
So may the einner be oleaneed,
'or **whoaoevcr shall caQ upon Bkt
lame of the Lord shall be saved**
'.Rom. 10:13). Be will not. turn the
