Running with Jesus 2015

Luke 8:30-33 And Jesus asked him, saying, What is thy name? And he said, Legion: because many devils were entered into him. And they besought him that he would not command them to go out into the deep. And there was there an herd of many swine feeding on the mountain: and they besought him that he would suffer them to enter into them. And he suffered them. Then went the devils out of the man, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the lake, and were choked.

                 Jesus has done it now! Delivered someone and gave them a beautiful picture of what Christ could do, but they couldn't get past their dead pigs.   Here is Satan working behind the scenes to keep people from knowing Jesus. There sat a life changed forever. But they didn't want to have to change their ways. They liked their life style, glory and wealth. Reminds me of people in the body today! They want their fire insurance so they run forward in a church service! Don't ask them to change their schedules and give up their time and plans. That is when they run Jesus out of town. I am here to say you better read your insurance policies? The fine print!  God's Word says we are to die daily to self and to take up our cross and follow Jesus.  What was a cross used for to crucify a person. So many of us don't want to hear this part!  We let an innocent man take our death sentence but have no remorse or gratitude!  There were 10 lepers healed one day only one returned to say thank you!

                Let's have a think today on this one! Did you really get the real policy? Or just got a fake! Works are evidence that real faith took place! 

 Lord, help us discern religion and regeneration! The demonic man got regenerated yesterday!    

His life changed today they were afraid at what they saw but couldn’t get past the dead swine!  Lord help

us get real about being a true runner not a fake! Help us know the difference!

Tomorrow: Waiting on Jesus!
