Part 4: Self-Rehab

February 25, 2024

2^nd to Jesus, what is your most important relationship?

Genesis 3:9 (NLT) Then the LORD God called to the man, “Where are you?”

Where are you?

Mark 5:21 (NIV) When Jesus had again crossed over by boat to the other side of the lake, a large crowd gathered around him while he was by the lake.

Mark 5:22 (NIV) Then one of the synagogue leaders, named Jairus, came, and when he saw Jesus, he fell at his feet.

Mark 5:23 (NIV) He pleaded earnestly with him, “My little daughter is dying. Please come and put your hands on her so that she will be healed and live.”

Mark 5:24 (NIV) So Jesus went with him. A large crowd followed and pressed around him.

Mark 5:25 (NIV) And a woman was there who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years.

Mark 5:26 (NIV) She had suffered a great deal under the care of many doctors and had spent all she had, yet instead of getting better she grew worse.

Mark 5:27 (NIV) When she heard about Jesus, she came up behind him in the crowd and touched his cloak,

Mark 5:28 (NIV) because she thought, “If I just touch his clothes, I will be healed.”

Mark 5:29 (NIV) Immediately her bleeding stopped and she felt in her body that she was freed from her suffering.

Mark 5:32 (NIV) But Jesus kept looking around to see who had done it.

Mark 5:33 (NIV) Then the woman, knowing what had happened to her, came and fell at his feet and, trembling with fear, told him the whole truth.”
