MIRACLES in GALILEE (Part 1)


 John 21:25

King James Version

25 And there are also many other things which Jesus did, 

the which, if they should be written every one, 

I suppose that even the world itself could not contain 

the books that should be written. 

Amen.


What are miracles?

What miracles did JESUS perform?

Why did He perform miracles?

Here are miracles He performed in Galilee.

These 12 miracles is the first in a series of three posts:

John 2:1-11

King James Version

2 And the third day 

there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; 

and the mother of Jesus was there:

2 And both Jesus was called, 

and his disciples, to the marriage.

3 And when they wanted wine, 

the mother of Jesus saith unto him, 

They have no wine.

4 Jesus saith unto her, 

Woman, what have I to do with thee? 

mine hour is not yet come.

5 His mother saith unto the servants, 

Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it.

6 And there were set there six waterpots of stone, 

after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, 

containing two or three firkins apiece.

7 Jesus saith unto them, 

Fill the waterpots with water. 

And they filled them up to the brim.

8 And he saith unto them, 

Draw out now, 

and bear unto the governor of the feast. 

And they bare it.

9 When the ruler of the feast 

had tasted the water that was made wine, 

and knew not whence it was: 

(but the servants which drew the water knew;) 

the governor of the feast called the bridegroom,

10 And saith unto him, 

Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; 

and when men have well drunk, 

then that which is worse: 

but thou hast kept the good wine until now.

11 This beginning of miracles 

did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, 

and manifested forth his glory; 

and his disciples believed on him.


John 4:46-54

King James Version

46 So Jesus came again into Cana of Galilee, 

where he made the water wine. 

And there was a certain nobleman, 

whose son was sick at Capernaum.

47 When he heard that Jesus was come out of Judaea 

into Galilee, he went unto him, 

and besought him that he would come down, 

and heal his son: for he was at the point of death.

48 Then said Jesus unto him, 

Except ye see signs and wonders, ye will not believe.

49 The nobleman saith unto him, 

Sir, come down ere my child die.

50 Jesus saith unto him, 

Go thy way; thy son liveth. 

And the man believed the word 

that Jesus had spoken unto him, 

and he went his way.

51 And as he was now going down, 

his servants met him, and told him, saying, 

Thy son liveth.

52 Then enquired he of them the hour 

when he began to amend. 

And they said unto him, 

Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.

53 So the father knew that it was at the same hour, 

in the which Jesus said unto him, 

Thy son liveth: 

and himself believed, and his whole house.

54 This is again the second miracle that Jesus did, 

when he was come out of Judaea into Galilee.


Mark 1:21-28

King James Version

21 And they went into Capernaum

and straightway on the sabbath day 

he entered into the synagogue, and taught.

22 And they were astonished at his doctrine: 

for he taught them as one that had authority, 

and not as the scribes.

23 And there was in their synagogue 

a man with an unclean spirit; 

and he cried out,

24 Saying, Let us alone; 

what have we to do with thee, 

thou Jesus of Nazareth? 

art thou come to destroy us? 

I know thee who thou art, 

the Holy One of God.

25 And Jesus rebuked him, saying, 

Hold thy peace, and come out of him.

26 And when the unclean spirit had torn him, 

and cried with a loud voice, he came out of him.

27 And they were all amazed, 

insomuch that they questioned among themselves, 

saying, 

What thing is this? 

what new doctrine is this? 

for with authority commandeth he 

even the unclean spirits, 

and they do obey him.

28 And immediately his fame spread abroad 

throughout all the region round about Galilee.


Luke 4:38-39

King James Version

38 And he arose out of the synagogue, 

and entered into Simon's house. 

And Simon's wife's mother was taken 

with a great fever; 

and they besought him for her.

39 And he stood over her, 

and rebuked the fever; 

and it left her: 

and immediately she arose 

and ministered unto them.


Luke 4:40-41

King James Version

40 Now when the sun was setting, 

all they that had any sick with divers diseases 

brought them unto him; 

and he laid his hands on every one of them, 

and healed them.

41 And devils also came out of many, 

crying out, and saying, 

Thou art Christ the Son of God. 

And he rebuking them suffered them not to speak: 

for they knew that he was Christ.


Luke 5:1-9

King James Version

5 And it came to pass, that, 

as the people pressed upon him 

to hear the word of God, 

he stood by the lake of Gennesaret,

2 And saw two ships standing by the lake: 

but the fishermen were gone out of them, 

and were washing their nets.

3 And he entered into one of the ships, 

which was Simon's, 

and prayed him that he would thrust out 

a little from the land. 

And he sat down, and taught the people 

out of the ship.

4 Now when he had left speaking, 

he said unto Simon, 

Launch out into the deep, 

and let down your nets for a draught.

5 And Simon answering said unto him, 

Master, we have toiled all the night, 

and have taken nothing: 

nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net.

6 And when they had this done, 

they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: 

and their net brake.

7 And they beckoned unto their partners, 

which were in the other ship, 

that they should come and help them. 

And they came, and filled both the ships, 

so that they began to sink.

8 When Simon Peter saw it, 

he fell down at Jesus' knees, 

saying, 

Depart from me; 

for I am a sinful man, O Lord.

9 For he was astonished, 

and all that were with him, 

at the draught of the fishes 

which they had taken:


Mark 1:38-39

King James Version

38 And he said unto them, 

Let us go into the next towns, 

that I may preach there also: 

for therefore came I forth.

39 And he preached in their synagogues 

throughout all Galilee, 

and cast out devils.


Mark 1:40-45

King James Version

40 And there came a leper to him, 

beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, 

and saying unto him, 

If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.

41 And Jesus, 

moved with compassion, 

put forth his hand, and touched him, 

and saith unto him, 

I will; be thou clean.

42 And as soon as he had spoken, 

immediately the leprosy departed from him, 

and he was cleansed.

43 And he straitly charged him, 

and forthwith sent him away;

44 And saith unto him, 

See thou say nothing to any man: 

but go thy way, 

shew thyself to the priest,

 and offer for thy cleansing 

those things which Moses commanded, 

for a testimony unto them.

45 But he went out, 

and began to publish it much, 

and to blaze abroad the matter, 

insomuch that Jesus could no more openly enter 

into the city, but was without in desert places: 

and they came to him from every quarter.


Matthew 8:5-13

King James Version

5 And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, 

there came unto him a centurion, beseeching him,

6 And saying, 

Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, 

grievously tormented.

7 And Jesus saith unto him, 

I will come and heal him.

8 The centurion answered and said, 

Lord, I am not worthy that thou 

shouldest come under my roof: 

but speak the word only, 

and my servant shall be healed.

9 For I am a man under authority, 

having soldiers under me: 

and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; 

and to another, Come, and he cometh; 

and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.

10 When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, 

and said to them that followed, 

Verily I say unto you, 

I have not found so great faith, 

no, not in Israel.

11 And I say unto you, 

That many shall come from the east and west, 

and shall sit down with Abraham, 

and Isaac, and Jacob, 

in the kingdom of heaven.

12 But the children of the kingdom 

shall be cast out into outer darkness: 

there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

13 And Jesus said unto the centurion, 

Go thy way; 

and as thou hast believed, so be it done unto thee. 

And his servant was healed in the selfsame hour.


Mark 2:1-12

King James Version

2 And again he entered into Capernaum 

after some days; 

and it was noised that he was in the house.

2 And straightway many were gathered together, 

insomuch that there was no room to receive them, 

no, not so much as about the door: 

and he preached the word unto them.

3 And they come unto him, 

bringing one sick of the palsy, 

which was borne of four.

4 And when they could not come nigh unto him 

for the press, they uncovered the roof where he was: 

and when they had broken it up, 

they let down the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay.

5 When Jesus saw their faith, 

he said unto the sick of the palsy, 

Son, thy sins be forgiven thee.

6 But there was certain of the scribes sitting there, 

and reasoning in their hearts,

7 Why doth this man thus speak blasphemies? 

who can forgive sins but God only?

8 And immediately when Jesus perceived in his spirit 

that they so reasoned within themselves, 

he said unto them, 

Why reason ye these things in your hearts?

9 Whether is it easier to say to the sick of the palsy, 

Thy sins be forgiven thee; 

or to say, Arise, and take up thy bed, and walk?

10 But that ye may know that the Son of man 

hath power on earth to forgive sins, 

(he saith to the sick of the palsy,)

11 I say unto thee, 

Arise, and take up thy bed, 

and go thy way into thine house.

12 And immediately he arose, 

took up the bed, and went forth before them all; 

insomuch that they were all amazed, 

and glorified God, saying, 

We never saw it on this fashion.


Mark 3:1-7

King James Version

3 And he entered again into the synagogue; 

and there was a man there which had a withered hand.

2 And they watched him, 

whether he would heal him on the sabbath day; 

that they might accuse him.

3 And he saith unto the man 

which had the withered hand, 

Stand forth.

4 And he saith unto them, 

Is it lawful to do good on the sabbath days, 

or to do evil? 

to save life, or to kill? 

But they held their peace.

5 And when he had looked round about on them with anger, 

being grieved for the hardness of their hearts, 

he saith unto the man, 

Stretch forth thine hand. 

And he stretched it out: 

and his hand was restored whole as the other.

6 And the Pharisees went forth, 

and straightway took counsel with the Herodians 

against him, how they might destroy him.

7 But Jesus withdrew himself with his disciples 

to the sea: 

and a great multitude from Galilee followed him, 

and from Judaea,


Luke 7:11-17

King James Version

11 And it came to pass the day after, 

that he went into a city called Nain

and many of his disciples went with him, 

and much people.

12 Now when he came nigh to the gate of the city, 

behold, there was a dead man carried out, 

the only son of his mother, and she was a widow: 

and much people of the city was with her.

13 And when the Lord saw her, 

he had compassion on her, 

and said unto her, 

Weep not.

14 And he came and touched the bier:

 and they that bare him stood still. 

And he said, 

Young man, I say unto thee, Arise.

15 And he that was dead sat up, 

and began to speak. 

And he delivered him to his mother.

16 And there came a fear on all: 

and they glorified God, saying, 

That a great prophet is risen up among us; 

and, That God hath visited his people.

17 And this rumour of him went forth 

throughout all Judaea, 

and throughout all the region round about.
