8:14 And when Jesus was come into Peter's house, he saw his wife's mother laid, and sick of a fever.
8:15 And he touched her hand, and the fever left her: and she arose, and ministered unto them.
8:16 When the even was come, they brought unto him many that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with his word, and healed all that were sick:
8:17 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses.
Jesus healed Peter's mother-in-law with a touch, then she got up and served them. You can be like Peter's mother-in-law by serving God after Jesus takes away your sins. Jesus then cast out many devils from people who were possessed. This shows that Jesus has power over all the earth, even demons and devils. It's hard living in these times when Satan is the ruler of the world, but at some time in the future, God will send Jesus Christ back to earth to finally destroy all evil and sin so that we can live in peace. Satan is only ruler of the world because God allows it. You don't have to submit to Satan's rule, you can reject Satan and follow God.
God bless you.
