Mark 1:39

Galilee
Witness and missionSpiritual warfare

37 and when they found Him, they said, “Everyone is looking for You!”

38 But Jesus answered, “Let us go on to the neighboring towns so I can preach there as well, for that is why I have come.”

So He went throughout Galilee, preaching in their synagogues and driving out demons.

40 Then a leper came to Jesus, begging on his knees: “If You are willing, You can make me clean.”

41 Moved with compassion, Jesus reached out His hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” He said. “Be clean!”
