Ministry Outside the Tabernacle

1. Healing by the seaside — Jesus withdrew to the sea from the tabernacle, there He continued His healing ministry, casting out demons. It was His mission to bring to man a wholesome life. (v10-11)

2. Appointment up on the mountain — The 12 disciples’ missions are three fold: commitment in following Jesus, preaching His way, authorized to cast out demons. (v14-15)

Scripture of the Day (NT): Mark 3a (v1-19)

* Even plants advertise and draw customers to come! In the deep bush of Cuba, climbing vines rely on bats to pollinate. By producing an ‘echo beacon’, the plants attract bats who navigate by responding to echoes. The vine has a dish-shape leaf located above a cluster of flowers that help bats find them by reflecting back the calls the bats send out. B. FENTON, an expert in bats studies said, “The leaf is like the neon-sign outside a restaurant, attracting customers to come.” Isn’t the design of the Great Creator all perfect!

* … And Jehovah heard it. Now the man Moses was very meek, above all the men that were upon the face of the earth. (Numbers 12:2b-3)

Numbers 11-13: This is the Bible’s comment on Moses: meek, meaning that he did not fight back even when being oppressed or ill-treated. He fully counted on God to defend him.

Two Men Who Arose

* Married to a beast — Pop singer Whitney HOUSTON’s death was a great misery! This tragedy teaches us the lesson that we should be watchful for Christian celebrities. Whitney came from a family of great gospel singers, grew up in a Baptist church, herself a choir member since young. At the height of her career, she was married to a drug addict and became ‘infected’ with the evil habit herself. She ended up with a divorce, repented to the Lord and suffered tremendous struggle fighting with drug addiction. Her story in Chinese/text:

Work On The Sabbath

1. The Sabbath ends at sunset, congregations in the synagogue were dismissed but it was exactly when Jesus began His ministry of the Heavenly Kingdom, a time when the entire city gathered and waited for Him. (v32)

2. The Spiritual ministry at sunrise called for greater Holy power from God. Jesus, like all other servants of God had to depart into a desert place and prayed, finding an intimate moment of restfulness in God. (v35)

Scripture of the Day (NT): Mark 1b (v29-45)

* As an ethnic Chinese, Jeremy LIN/林書豪 young and inexperienced when he set foot on the basketball court in college, was victim of mockery and discrimination.  One reporter even called him “chink”, a pejorative description that he was a Chinese with tiny eyes. Even facing such disrespect, Jeremy did not lose his temper, said that he was learning his lesson of forgiveness. Thanks to his parents’ Christian teaching and how the Word of impacts him since he was young, Jeremy has a big heart to forgive. This is what he recalls of his father’s advice “Even when you are being criticized by people, remain calm, do not get furious. Win a match and that can change the way people feel about you, you will gain their support and respect.” In a recent interview, Jeremy said, “I am proud to be a Chinese, I am proud of my parents who are from Taiwan. I thank God for giving me all these opportunities!” Famous as he is today, Jeremy does not forget his roots, all because he is obedient and fearful of the Lord since young.

Pilate’s Dilemma

Miraculous Dream — Pilate’s wife had a dream about Jesus, highlighting his innocence – even a Gentile woman received revelation, whereas the Jewish leaders remained stubborn. (v.19)

* How marvellous! Sea water rises & falls at two appointed times each day, called tides. Responding to gravitational attraction of the Moon as it rotates, the Sea rises when it faces the Moon & falls when otherwise. This cyclical movement makes an underwater world, breeding countless living creatures. The Sun incinerates 240 million units of nuclear fuel every minute, temperature of its core is 15 million Celcius, 5500 degree for its surface. The Sun is 150 million meters away from Earth, takes an air-jet 17 years to complete one trip! The distance is no more, no less, just right to keep the Earth habitable!
