14 And when Jesus was come into Peter's house, he saw his wife's mother laid, and sick of a fever. 15 And he touched her hand, and the fever left her: and she arose, and ministered unto them.

29 And forthwith, when they were come out of the synagogue, they entered into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John. 30 But Simon's wife's mother lay sick of a fever, and anon they tell him of her. 31 And he came and took her by the hand, and lifted her up; and immediately the fever left her, and she ministered unto them.

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.

• Jesus' Compassion: In each account, we see Jesus' immediate response to the need. His compassion is evident as He heals Peter's mother-in-law without delay. This reminds us that Jesus cares deeply about our struggles and pains.
• Jesus' Authority Over Illness: Jesus' ability to heal with a touch or a word demonstrates His divine authority over sickness and disease. It is a testament to His power and a reminder that nothing is too difficult for Him.
• The Response to Healing: After being healed, Peter's mother-in-law immediately began to serve. Her response teaches us that our gratitude for God's intervention in our lives should lead to a desire to serve Him and others.
• Intercession of Others: In Mark and Luke, it is mentioned that others informed Jesus of her condition or asked Him to help. This highlights the importance of interceding on behalf of others, bringing their needs before Jesus in prayer.
• Restoration to Wholeness: Jesus' healing was complete and immediate, allowing Peter's mother-in-law to return to her daily activities without delay. This signifies that when Jesus heals, He restores us fully, enabling us to live out our purpose.
