Serving the Word: 5th July

WEDNESDAY 5th JULY 2023

Matthew 8, 28-34:

“Two demoniacs came out of the tombs to meet him; they were so violent that no one dared to pass that way.”

 

Today’s Gospel tells us that “from the tombs two possessed men ran to meet Jesus”.

These are two men who, although alive, are dead. They do not live with the people, but their dwelling place is “in the tombs”.

The power of Jesus casts out of them the diabolical possession that chained them and made them dangerous to all who approached them. How often in our lives we also dwell and walk among the “tombs” possessed by a thousand “devils” who torment us.

We are tormented and possessed by the devils of sadness, hopelessness, fear, disillusionment, hatred, resentment, etc

Go out today to meet Jesus, for He is stronger than all your “graves” and all your “demons”. You will also be able to leave with joy and happiness because Jesus, with his strength and power, casts out of you everything that makes you live in chains.

Good day to you.
