Oh, let the Son of God enfold you with His spirit and his love.

Let him fill your heart and satisfy your soul.

Oh, let him have the things that hold you,

and his spirit like a dove will descend upon your life and make you home.

Welcome to the Word for today,

featuring the Bible teaching of Pastor Chuck Smith, founder of the Calvary Chapel movement.

This radio program is a verse by verse study through the entire Bible.

And on today's edition of the Word for today, Pastor Chuck continues with Jesus heals the sick,

as we pick up in Mark, chapter 5, verse 21.

And now with today's message, here's Pastor Chuck.

When Jesus was passed over again by ship to the other side,

many people gathered unto him, and he was near the sea,

and behold, there came one of the rulers of the synagogue, Gaias, by name.

And when he saw him, he fell at his feet, and he besought him greatly, saying,

My little daughter, lieth at the point of death, I pray thee, come and lay thy hands on her,

that she may be healed, and she shall live.

And Jesus went with him, and many people followed him, on her that she may be healed and she shall live.

And Jesus went with him and many people followed him and thronged him.

So coming now back to Copernium,

Gyrus, one of the rulers of the synagogue there in Copernium came to Jesus, driven by desperation,

because at home, notice, he besought him greatly, saying, my little daughter lieth at the point of death.

Probably the easiest way to get to the heart of a man is through his children.
