Jesus made Capernaum his home.
John 4:46-54
46 Once more he visited Cana in Galilee, where he had turned the water into wine. And there was a certain royal official whose son lay sick at Capernaum. 47 When this man heard that Jesus had arrived in Galilee from Judea, he went to him and begged him to come and heal his son, who was close to death.
48 "Unless you people see miraculous signs and wonders," Jesus told him, "you will never believe."
49 The royal official said, "Sir, come down before my child dies."
50 Jesus replied, "You may go. Your son will live."
The man took Jesus at his word and departed. 51 While he was still on the way, his servants met him with the news that his boy was living. 52 When he inquired as to the time when his son got better, they said to him, "The fever left him yesterday at the seventh hour."
53 Then the father realized that this was the exact time at which Jesus had said to him, "Your son will live." So he and all his household believed.
54 This was the second miraculous sign that Jesus performed, having come from Judea to Galilee.
This is a lovely day in the life of Jesus Christ the LORD. Jesus had another day being our hero, Jesus.
We could have many, many more days of Jesus, when you consider Jesus is The Word of God in Genesis. God said, "Let there be Light." John wrote of this in John 1. In Him was life, and the life was the Light of men. John wanted us to understand the deepest mystery of all, this is all true:
John 21:24
This is the disciple who is bearing witness about these things, and who has written these things, and we know that his testimony is true.
We get so used to our Gospels, they don't surprise us, yet look at John. I once had a Priest, a teacher of Israel, said this wasn't a miracle. Don't you get this; Jesus is always amazing!
John 6:21
Then they were glad to take him into the boat, and immediately the boat was at the land to which they were going.
How did Elijah call down fire to start the altar fire after dousing that with water. How did Jesus do these things? Like Einstein said, He moved space and time, He bent the world to His Will, with His Word. The Word of God is powerful.
The five times God parted waters on earth?
Genesis 1:6-7
And God said, "Let there be an expanse between the waters to separate water from water." So God made the expanse and separated the water under the expanse from the water above it. And it was so.
Exodus 14:21-22
Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and all that night the Lord drove the sea back with a strong east wind and turned it into dry land. The waters were divided, and the Israelites went through the sea on dry ground, with a wall of water on their right and on their left.
Joshua was there when the Word was spoken to have the Ark cross on dry land.
Joshua 3:13
And when the soles of the feet of the priests bearing the ark of the Lord, the Lord of all the earth, shall rest in the waters of the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan shall be cut off from flowing, and the waters coming down from above shall stand in one heap.”
2 Kings 2:7-8
Fifty men of the company of the prophets went and stood at a distance, facing the place where Elijah and Elisha had stopped at the Jordan. Elijah took his cloak, and rolled it up and struck the water with it. The water divided to the right and to the left, and the two of them crossed over on dry ground.
2 Kings 2:13-14
He picked up the cloak that had fallen from Elijah and went back and stood on the bank of the Jordan. Then he took the cloak that had fallen from him and struck the water with it. "Where now is the Lord, the God of Elijah?" he asked. When he struck the water, it divided to the right and to the left, and he crossed over.
John 21:25
Now there are also many other things that Jesus did. Were every one of them to be written, I suppose that the world itself could not contain the books that would be written.
Some day, by the golden waters written of in Revelation, we will learn of many days, unrecorded that the work of Jesus Christ and HIS Father continue to this very day.
John 5:17
Jesus said to them, "My Father is always at his work to this very day, and I, too, am working."
Mysteries today? Really? Well, you have to be like the boy's father and believe. The signs are still there. God is at work. And today, in gratitude we shall say with grateful hearts - all is well in the world, help us to do Your will bringing Heaven to Earth. Our hero, our love, Jesus Christ. Amen.
