Luke 4:38-42

Jesus left the synagogue and went to Simon’s house. Simon’s mother-in-law was sick with a high fever. They asked Jesus to help her.

He bent over her, ordered the fever to leave, and it went away. She got up immediately and prepared a meal for them.

When the sun was setting, everyone who had friends suffering from various diseases brought them to him. He placed his hands on each of them and cured them.

Demons came out of many people, shouting, “You are the Son of God!” But Jesus ordered them not to speak. After all, they knew he was the Messiah.

In the morning he went to a place where he could be alone. The crowds searched for him. When they came to him, they tried to keep him from leaving.
