Spiritual Advertising

Jesus often told someone he healed not to tell others. This fulfilled prophecy in the Old Testament, “Nor will anyone hear his voice in the streets” (Mathew 12:19). Jesus did not have to brag. He simply allowed the father to work through him (John 14:10).

How different than many today who claim to perform miracles. They send out fliers in order to spread their names as far and wide as possible.

If God works through us, it is not for our glory, but for his.
