12 But when Jesus saw her, He called her to Him and said to her, "Woman, you are loosed from your infirmity."13 And He laid His hands on her, and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God.
Jesus is the person who can grasp and use every opportunity properly to preach Gospel.
When he was teaching in the synagogue on the Sabbath, there must be many people over there. When Jesus saw that woman who had a spirit of infirmity and called her to him, the crowd must watch them and wait for what will be happened. When the infirmity of this woman was healed, she immediately glorified God. The crowd there must be very surprised. And the woman had this kind of spiritual wisdom, she knew this miracle belongs to God, not to man. Some others might even not glorify God after being cured (Luk ch.17).
Besides, while the ruler of the synagogue railed against him that he healed on Sabbath, he used this chance to teach the crowd what is the main purpose that men should do on the Sabbath. The God we worship is teaching us to love, not obeying the rules like Pharisees.
Through Jesus’ miracle and speech all the crowd not only witness the mighty deed but also realize that God is the living and true God. I believe that the crowd have known more about God and rejoiced for Him afterwards.
Mat 5:16 "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.
God is pleased well, if we glorify His Name. Do we have this kind of wisdom like Jesus grasped any Chance to preach the Gospel, let others glorify him? And can we like this woman glorify God after receiving his mercy?
