10-12-2014 Mark 5:1-9
S. 1
And they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the
Gadarenes.2 And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out
of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,3 Who had his dwelling among the
tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains:4 Because that he had
been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked
asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame
him.5 And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs,
crying, and cutting himself with stones.6 But when he saw Jesus afar off, he
ran and worshipped him,7 And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to
do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that
thou torment me not.8 For he said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean
spirit.9 And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name
is Legion: for we are many.
O. Jesus
cast out a demon named Legion who had been terrorizing the land of the
Gadarenes.
A. Demons
are real and still walk among men. I will not fear any unclean spirit. I will
use the word of God to defeat them.
P. Father; fill me with your Holy Spirit to the full. Give me discernment to recognize the activities of evil spirits and build up my courage to speak your word against them. Amen.
