Move to Capernaum

In Matt 4:13-16, Jesus moved to Galilee's main fishing centre which was the town of Capernaum.  Peter, Andrew, James and John were from this community.  Jesus made this community the base for His ministry in the Galilee.  Jesus was fulfilling a prophecy found in the book of Isaiah.  Out of Zebulun and Naphtali the people would see a great light.  Jesus came to give light to those living in the shadow of death.  Jesus was aware of the Old Tesatment prophecy and He would fulfill it.  Jesus by the time He had finished his ministry fulfilled some 200-300 prophecies.  I love the Book of Matthew because Matthew started off as a tax collector but He improved Himself and became a formal Jewish scholar and powerful teacher of the Lord.  You can as well, study the word and rightly divide it for the glory of God.  Your promises today are:  Prov 3:5-6, Isaiah 40:31, 1 Cor 10:13 and James 4:7.  Your Insightful Saying is:  Never get in a rut because it is a grave with both ends kicked out.
