Preaching the good news of the kingdom

Matthew 4:23-25
Jesus 1)teaching in their synagogues, 2)preaching the good news of the kingdom, and 3)healing every disease and sickness among the people.
Large crows from Galilee, the Decapolis, Jerusalem, Judea and the region across the Jordan followed him.
Jesus travelling all over to teach, 'proclaim the good news of the kingdom' and heal the sick.
Decapolis/Ten Towns: Ten free Greek cities south-east of Galilee.
Why?
People follow Jesus most are for the healing disease, but more important is the good news of the kingdom. Healing shows the power from heaven and it is symbol of the power to population.
How?
Preaching the good news of the kingdom and caring the needs of people.
