Helping OR Hindering

Mark 1

Inspired thots

Jesus kick started His ministry in Galilee to preach the kingdom of God with healing and casting out of demons. He did not permit the demons to speak for they knew Him. He did not want personal fame and glory as He went about the work of God in proclaiming the gospel of repentance and salvation.

Man reacts differently; he boasts and tries to help God but ends up hindering God's will. The leper pleaded with Jesus for healing; he received it when Jesus showed compassion towards him but the leper disobeyed Jesus' instruction to keep quiet. The healed leper spread the word that attracted many to Jesus; did it help or hinder Jesus in His ministry?
