SLIDE:  Jesus heals the demoniac 

     Luke 8::26-39   Pg. 840

 

dead. healed diseases.  storm

 

Jesus is asleep.   going to drown.

 

“Who is this? He commands even the winds and the water, and they obey him.”

 

When he saw Jesus, he cried out and fell at his feet, shouting at the top of his voice, “What do you want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg you, don’t torture me!”

 

3 gospels:  YOU HAVE TO TELL THIS HEALING STORY!

 

 Chaos in ONE person! 

 

of the wind and waves, death, demons, diseases, dysfunction is now found IN a person.  It is in Gentile territory… not Jewish.

 

:29,  He lived in the tombs, people tried to constrain him, He broke off the shackles, he cut himself with stones, He cried out in the night.

 

The spiritual poverty is evident.

His self destructive behavior is the same way.

The loneliness is the same way

The very worst!

 

I am not that bad.

 

LEARN and GROW!

  1. Communion:

 

Jesus : naked, isolated, outside the town among the tombs, torn apart on the cross:   This is how the demons are dealt with. That is how healing takes place. Jesus is coming to share the plight of the people, to let the enemy do its worst to him, to take the full force of evil on himself and let the others go free.

 

 

CLOSE in PRAYER: 

 

Someone Challenged me!

Encouraged me!

The end of myself
