Good Morning Everyone,
Mark 5: 2b- 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.
This man was some
mothers little boy, who once was a child a maybe played "make believe" and
skipped through the streets. Now, his life had fallen into an abyss
where there was no memory of the past and no hope for the
future...only the torture of the present, a nightmare of unending
terror. Somewhere, somehow, in time past, the forces of darkness
gained in his life.
Somehow, he gave them an opening to attack; and he became a prisoner from then on. Friends,
Jesus is Lord over the Natural as well as the Supernatural Realm.
He can calm a tormented soul as easily as he
calmed the tempestuous sea. Have we passed some at our work place that needs to
be pulled from their most terrifying tomb? Is there
some naked prisoner passing you on the street and need snatching from darkness-
and set free, or needs to be dressed in their
right mind and show them how to be reunited with their family?
Do we just look on and say, "this is just a bad dream
I've found myself in." What can we do this week to help someone win
the Battle of Their Mind! How can we make some Mother proud next week,
because her son came home in his right mind?....Selah.. God
Bless.
Holy One, we
thank You for all Your mercies and loving kindness that reach us every day; and
even when our days seem cloudy and cold - Lord, bring us to a place of
restitution. Restore the Joy of Your Salvation when
we are faint of heart and come in contact with our worst
nightmares... Father, give us eyes to see that the true battle
is spiritual not physical. For our struggles are not flesh and
blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of
this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
No matter how violent, help us to realize that people are not the
enemy...they are prisoners of the enemy. Father, we pray that
You give us Wisdom to penetrate their tombs and deliver them from their demons,
and dress them in their right mind, and set them free. Help us to realize that
the Real Battleground is the Human Heart. It is over this territory that the
forces of good and evil draw their swords. Lord God, help us to surrender our
hearts, hopes, fears, dreams, desires, our ambitions, our Love and our
Loyalty to You. May what we do today/ be a Victory for Your
Kingdom O God...and one less battle to fight
tomorrow. In Jesus Name we pray and give Thanks And Praise....... Amen.....
Amen....
"Continuing In His Love &
Care!"
