The F.O.G Message *
[1] Jesus traveled through cities and villages, His heart burning to share the incredible news of God's kingdom breaking into our world. The twelve disciples journeyed with Him, learning and growing in their understanding with each step.
[27] Immediately, they encountered a man controlled by demons. Long ago he had abandoned clothes and home, living among the tombs like a wild animal.[28] Seeing Jesus, he fell down screaming, "What do You want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? Please don't torture me!"[29] Jesus was already commanding the evil spirit to leave this tortured soul. Previous attempts to control the man with chains and guards had failed – the demons' power had snapped every restraint, driving him into lonely wilderness.[30] "What is your name?" Jesus asked. "Legion," the demons replied, revealing their overwhelming number.[31] They begged repeatedly not to be sent into the bottomless pit.[32] A large herd of pigs fed on a nearby hillside. The demons pleaded to enter them instead.[33] When Jesus permitted this, the demons left the man and entered the pigs. The entire herd rushed down the steep bank and drowned in the lake.[34] The terrified pig herders ran to spread news of these events throughout the region.[35] People rushed to see for themselves. They found the former demoniac sitting calmly at Jesus's feet, clothed and completely sane. Fear gripped them as they realized the magnitude of power they were witnessing.[36] Eyewitnesses described the dramatic transformation from demon-possessed madman to peaceful follower of Jesus.[37] But this display of supernatural power terrified the local people. They begged Jesus to leave, choosing the familiar comfort of their old lives over His transformative presence.[38] The healed man begged to join Jesus's followers.[39] Instead, Jesus gave him a mission: "Return home and tell everyone how much God has done for you." The man obeyed, spreading news throughout the city of Jesus's incredible power to transform lives.[40] When Jesus returned to Galilee, an eager crowd welcomed Him, having anxiously awaited His return.[41] A synagogue leader named Jairus fell at Jesus's feet, desperation evident in every movement. He pleaded with Jesus to come to his home.[42] His only daughter, just twelve years old, lay dying. Jesus started toward Jairus's house, but the pressing crowd slowed their progress dramatically.[43] In that crowd was a woman who had suffered from bleeding for twelve years, spending everything she had on ineffective treatments.[44] She approached Jesus from behind, touching His garment's edge with trembling fingers full of faith. Immediately, her bleeding stopped.[45] "Who touched Me?" Jesus asked. When everyone denied it, Peter pointed out the crowds pressing in from every side.[46] But Jesus insisted, "Someone specifically touched Me with faith. I felt healing power flow from Me."[47] Realizing she couldn't remain hidden, the woman came forward trembling. Before everyone, she explained why she had touched Him and how she had been instantly healed.[48] Jesus's voice was gentle: "Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace, free from your suffering."[49] While He was still speaking, someone arrived from Jairus's house with devastating news: "Your daughter has died. Don't bother the Teacher anymore."[50] But Jesus turned to Jairus: "Don't be afraid. Just believe, and she will be healed."[51] At the house, Jesus allowed only Peter, John, James, and the child's parents to enter with Him.[52] The house was filled with mourning – people weeping and wailing. "Stop crying," Jesus said. "She's not dead but sleeping."[53] They laughed mockingly, knowing she was dead.[54] Taking her hand, Jesus called out, "Child, arise!"[55] Her spirit returned, and she immediately stood up! Jesus demonstrated His practical care by instructing them to give her something to eat.[56] Her parents were absolutely amazed, but Jesus gave strict instructions not to tell anyone what had happened. His ministry would unfold according to the Father's perfect timing, not human excitement.
