Mark
5 – The Servant Comes to Us.
Jesus
went through a storm to get to two demoniacs who needed his help. (Matt. 8:28).
The demons begged not to be sent to the pit, the citizens begged Jesus to leave,
and one healed man begged to go with Jesus. The citizens were more concerned
with financial profit than with spiritual benefit. Satan and his forces are
bent on destroying the good creation of God. If the demons had remained in the
man they surely would have destroyed him.
All
kinds of people came to the feet of Jesus. A well-known synagogue leader and an
anonymous sick woman could find help there. Perhaps the woman’s faith was a bit
superstitious, but the Lord still honored it. If you cannot grasp His hand,
touch the hem of His garment. The first step of faith, no matter how weak will
lead to greater blessings! You can come to the Servant. When Jesus heals, he
makes the person well – complete or whole. The woman’s healing led her to
salvation.
No
situation is so desperate that Jesus cannot work. Disease, delays, and even
death are under His control Jesus goes with you to the place of disappointment
and sorrow and meets your needs. No matter how depressing your situation may
appear. “Do not be afraid; only believe”. The Servant is working for you. He
will go with you. Because of Jesus, death never has the last word.
