‘Help me Lord to understand Your word and to put it into action…in this today.’

  The Lord Jesus was in a Capernaum synagogue one Sabbath.  Also present “was a man possessed by the spirit of an unclean demon”. (See Luke 4:33)

Fact: demons can reside in people (those who know Jesus as their Savior has the Holy Spirit of God living in them…there is no room for any other spirits)
Fact: demons use the person they are in to speak and they have power to reason
Fact: demons recognize and acknowledge Jesus

(NASB) Luke 4:34 “Let us alone!  What business do we have with each other, Jesus of Nazareth?  Have You come to destroy us?  I know who You are…the Holy One of God!”

Jesus proved that He had the authority and the power over demons and their activity.  He did on that Sabbath, and He does today.
(NASB) Luke 4:35a “But Jesus rebuked him, saying, ‘Be quiet and come out of him!’”

The next thing the demon did was to throw the man down in front of all those present, but the demon did the man no harm.                       (See Luke 4:35)

The people present were amazed, they recognized the authority and power with which Jesus spoke and had control over unclean spirits.  It was so amazing that the people spread what they had seen and heard in the surrounding area.  (See Luke 4:36-37)

Do you recognize Jesus’ authority and power working in your “today”?
If so, are you spreading the news of the amazing work which He is doing?

You and I cannot tell others of Jesus’ works if we do not recognize them.

A question I have asked myself: ‘When was the last time I ‘saw’ Jesus at work?’

Perhaps your response would be similar to mine:
‘Forgive me Lord, open my blind eyes, unstop my deaf ears, and soften my hard heart to ‘see’ You at work in this today!
I want to be amazed at Your authority and power in this today!’

Amazement…in THIS Today? 

‘I want to ‘see’ You Lord Jesus in this today!’

What will you do to spread what you ‘see’ Jesus doing?
