Jesus spends time in solitary prayer. He travels around Galilee but many travel long distances to see him. Momentum is building and many are healed.

Jesus has authority to heal the sick. Many are brought after the Sabbath ends. Jesus also has authority over demons. We are in a spiritual battle today.

Jesus in his home, Nazareth, reads in the synagogue from Isaiah about the Servant of the Lord. This is Jesus' spiritual manifesto. The Spirit appointed him to preach, proclaim freedom from sin, heal, free the oppressed and declare God's favour. Mixed reception from his hearers.

Three different perspectives are given of Jesus in Galilee. Isaiah's prophecy, the Kingdom of God and the power of the Spirit are all given consideration.

Jesus returns to Cana in Galilee. A Jewish royal official seeks him out and asks for healing for his son. The first of many healing miracles. Faith in terms of earnestness and persistence is encouraged.
