miraclesMIRACLE – The Healing of Two Men Filled with Darkness
When he arrived at the other side in the region of the Gadarenes,​ a​ two demon-possessed men coming from the tombs met him. They were so violent that no one could pass that way.  “What do you want with us, Son of God?” they shouted. “Have you come here to torture us before the appointed time?” Some distance from them a large herd of pigs was feeding. The demons begged Jesus, “If you drive us out, send us into the herd of pigs.”

He said to them, “Go!” So they came out and went into the pigs, and the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and died in the water.  Those tending the pigs ran off, went into the town and reported all this, including what had happened to the demon-possessed men. Then the whole town went out to meet Jesus. And when they saw him, they pleaded with him to leave their region.  Matthew 8

POINT TO PONDER
From darkness come violence and fear.  Two men filled with darkness had created so havoc in this city that people had actually living in great fear.  Their normal path of travel had changed because of the the darkness in their city.

Then one day, Jesus, came across their pathway.  And when darkness met the power of light, darkness lost!  This story reminds us that there is NO power on earth or hell that can not be overcome by Jesus.

PRAYER
Lord Jesus, our city has strongholds of darkness and there is fear and violence in our city.
Lord Jesus, I ask that you remove the darkness, set the captive free.
Lord Jesus, I ask that you specifically overcome the darkness that has stronghold in young people.
Lord, break into the gangs that bring murder, violence and fear into our city and heal their hearts.

40 WAYS I CAN PROVE THAT “WITH GOD ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE”
Jesus said to them, “If you have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you. 21 However, this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting.”  Matthew 17:14-21 (NKJV)
