JESUS CAME TO GIVE US LIFE AND SET US FREE

November 17

Many in this world are like this man, they are in torment and crying out for relief.  They may not be demon possessed as this man was, but they are still possessed by torment, misery, and pain.  Don’t think because you don’t see this type of misery in a person that it is not inside of them.  Many believers need someone to come alongside of them to help them remember how much Jesus loves them and they can overcome these feelings through Him. Those that aren’t saved are going to be looking for something to set them free, it may be a bottle or any multitudes of addictions, but they are still killing the pain somehow. Unfortunately, they are looking for love in all the wrong places. Jesus came to give us life and set us free and these folks are not free, but we can set them free through Christ Jesus. Ask God to show you someone today that you can tell about Jesus.

Mark 5:1-6 Then they came to the other side of the sea, to the country of the Gadarenes. 2 And when He had come out of the boat, immediately there met Him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit, 3 who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no one could bind him, not even with chains, 4 because he had often been bound with shackles and chains. And the chains had been pulled apart by him, and the shackles broken in pieces; neither could anyone tame him. 5 And always, night and day, he was in the mountains and in the tombs, crying out and cutting himself with stones. 6 When he saw Jesus from afar, he ran and worshiped Him.
