Mark 3:7-12

Ministering to the Multitude

7 Jesus departed with His disciples to the sea, and a great multitude followed from Galilee, Judea,
8 Jerusalem, Idumea, beyond the Jordan, and around Tyre and Sidon. The great multitude came to Him because they heard about everything He was doing.
9 Then He told His disciples to have a small boat ready for Him, so the crowd would not crush Him.
10 Since He had healed many, all who had diseases were pressing toward Him to touch Him.
11 Whenever the unclean spirits saw Him, those possessed fell down before Him and cried out, "You are the Son of God!"
12 And He would strongly warn them not to make Him known.
