Daily Scripture Assignment: Num 10-11; Ps 27; Mk 1

Jeremy FickScripture - But the man went and spread the word, proclaiming to everyone what had happened. As a result, large crowds soon surrounded Jesus, and he couldn’t publicly enter a town anywhere. He had to stay out in the secluded places, but people from everywhere kept coming to him. - Mark 1:45 (NLT)

Observation - Jesus changes one man’s life and as a result, too many people are crowding around him! Knowing what would happen, Jesus told him not to tell anyone what had happened. I love how this wording then says “but” the man went and spread the word. When someone’s life is truly changed by God, they can’t help but talk about it.

Application - I want to see this kind of buzz in and around my life. I want to see my friends and family experience God’s touch in a way that they can’t help but spread the word. This kind of momentum just can’t be stopped.

Prayer - Lord, I pray that you would do the life-changing miracles in this community that bring attention to You!
