Mark :6 “But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him,”
Mark 5:7 “And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, [thou] Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not.”
Mark 5:8 “For he said unto him, Come out of the man, [thou] unclean spirit.”
…From yesterday…
As we begin to round up this meditation, let us consider how he finally got delivered from his madness:
The first thing that brought deliverance to this madman is what I call the principle of sight. The bible says “But when he saw Jesus afar off…“ (Mark 5:6).
Friend, what are you seeing? Are you focused on the problems or looking for solutions? Even in his madness, he saw well!
Hear David:
Psalms 121:1 “I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.”
Where you keep your gaze determines the type of help you will receive. David understood this principle so well; he kept his gaze on the only authentic source of help. Where are you keeping your own gaze? Where is your own help coming from?
Psalms 121:2 “My help [cometh] from the LORD, which made heaven and earth.”
Who or where are you looking at for help? Is your focus on your friend, your doctor, your salary, your boss, or God who made them and is greater than them all? You must realise you cannot help yourself. You’ve got to see Jesus as the only solution to the crisis of life.
The word “saw” as used in Mark 5:6 is a Greek word, which translated means to perceive, notice, discern, observe, discover, uncover and to pay attention.
Beloved, to break free from madness you need to make new discoveries and also pay attention perhaps to some things you might have been ignoring. You need to discern the solution even from afar.
There are truths you must uncover, observe and discover. Friend, get down into the word of God and make discoveries that will bail you out.
To be continued…
