"And again He entered into Capernaum after some days; and it was noised that He was in the house.” (Mark 2:1)
It must have been a special privilege for the Savior to come to Capernaum for a second visit. When He was there the first time He cast out demons, healed Simon’s mother-in-law and healed a centurion’s servant. Jesus’ visits were sometimes hurried and brief. There were places He never visited at all.
When one senses that Jesus is “coming by,” it is wise to take advantage of that opportunity. Word got out that Jesus was in Capernaum and that He was in a certain house. I wonder whose house it was. Was Jesus invited to that house or did He just happen to be passing by? And, I also wonder, has He been to your house lately? Did Jesus make any changes in your house and did you invite Him to stay? Has word gotten out, do people know that Jesus is in your house?
Invite Jesus to come to your house and give Him the keys. Put Him in charge of the language spoken there, the clothing worn, the beverages consumed and the entertainment enjoyed.
