O that the compassion of the Lord would be ours when it comes to those who are "not the same" as us. People who are down and out, hooked on drugs, alcohol, in the depravity of horrible sin. O that we might see them as Jesus did; that we might see their SOUL and not their sin! God help us to have a Christlike compassion and a humble desire to be used by God as soulwinners. May He give us strength, power, and boldness to reach ALL the unsaved, backslid, and one nearest to Hell from God folks.
This man was possessed by the devil and needed a touch from heaven. Jesus did not reject him, he rather cast out the devil and his demons from the man and sent him off with a mission. Tell others of the ". . .great things the Lord hath done for thee, . . ." That is OUR commission to go and tell. Not to just a select group, but to all who will listen - and when they won't "listen" leave a Gospel Tract! Point them to a good Bible Believing, preaching church!
Maybe you are reading this, and you are not saved, or you need a healing touch from heaven. Go back to "The Well" of living water, the Lord Jesus Christ. He is waiting for you and wants you to have all that heaven holds.
In the name of Jesus, may we be HIS emissaries and used by Him to help others.
HE CARES! Do You Know HIM? Lord, help us to be wise, studied up, aware, and faithful to You. Amen. With love and prayers, May we be your faithful Philippians 2:16 Missionaries?
Philippians 2:16 Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither laboured in vain.
