FAITH CAPSULE: With the Word of God, your pain will be converted to good gain.
Mark 5:1-20
The word is the master of all creating creators. When it sounds it can never be denied. Blind hears and receive sight; deaf hears and gain hearing; the lost listen and regain direction. The Word is power to make every knee bow. John 1:1-5 describes the word, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.”
The Bible described a mad man “who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no one could bind him, not even with chains, 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. And always, night and day, he was in the mountains and in the tombs, crying out and cutting himself with stones.” (Mark 5:3-5) it is justifiable for him to be called the father of all mad. There is no any other case of madness in the Scriptures that measure up to his madness. Evidently, he was not bound-able since he could pull chains apart. The mad man’s case presented untouchable challenges. Do you have a case that is exceedingly untouchable and very complicated with no hope at sight? The Word sounded in direction of the mad man stating, “…Come out of the man, unclean spirit!”(Mark 5:8) At the sound of the word, the mad man regained his right mind. Jesus the living Word of God will speak to your situation; He will not let you be wasted in your journey of life. He will cause all of your torment to be reversed for good. With the Word of God, your pain will be converted to good gain.
Does your case present a no way out situation like that of the mad man? The same Jesus is nearer to you than you can imagine. Today, begin to worship Him. Stop looking at your situation through natural eyes and begin to look up to Jesus. He is the living Word of God and He will speak to your situation if you will listen to receive His word of deliverance. The Word that has been sounding in your direction through the pages of Bible is the Word of God. The Word of God is God and God is His Word. What is it that is tormenting your life? The Word of God is the way of living life abundantly. When you begin to listen to the Word of God, you will undoubtedly walk away from the way of death.
Prayer for today: Ask for the word to sound in your direction.
