Christian Snails...
"But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him.." Mk.5:6
This verse is referring to the story about the man who was cutting himself in the tombs , and was bound with chains but could never be kept in chains. He was filled demons, so many that when they were cast out of him the entire herd of pigs ran violently into the water and drowned. But the key here is he SAW Jesus! This is the only thing Jesus did in this village, he crossed the sea to this place called the Gadarenes, healed one guy and left. Now it was the village who begged him to leave, but the Father knew this before He told Jesus to go.
A couple things I feel the Holy Ghost is saying here..
1. There are many today who are suffocating in demonic possession and oppression, screaming and cutting themselves, alone in their own "tombs" (or we in America call them homes)
2. Many times as Christians we look for the multitude and then act. We want to tally our numbers and look like we are saving large amounts of souls, why? Because that makes us look Christian. But I don't know which Jesus you are looking at, the one I adore is going out of His way for ONE!!!We have fabricated our own gods and they have NO similarity to the real Christ, who screams to reach that ONE!
3.When the man sees Jesus he worships Him, and yet this man is still at this point demonically possessed by many demons.
How many times are we satisfied to fill our churches with bodies but never passionate to fill them with souls? Jesus cries out that our buildings are filled with people, but they are not even His children, they are still possessed and governed by demons and Satan's hosts.
4.Jesus goes to him. He does not pray for this man to come to him and walk in his "church", he goes to his "tomb"; his "home". He leaves his own place of success and numbers and keeps reaching for the ones His father sees.
Too many of us have become moving snails. We carry our homes with us, but just like a snail we have room for only "three" people: "Me,myself, and I"
We have our own movie nights, our own dinners, our own outings with our 2 kids and S.U.V's . We are drowning in our own shells. Christ never wanted us to become crustaceans, he calls us to be Christians!! The name means "little Christ" . So everyday we should be sitting and asking where and what HE wants us to do and go. Only on His spontaneous Spirit appointments, will we experience life and the world will experience FREEDOM..."JEEEESSSUUUSSS, HELP US TO BREAK FREE FROM OUR X-BOXES, T.V. SHOWS AND PRETTY LIVES. WHO ARE WE TRYING TO FOOL??!! WE ARE SICK AND THAT IS WHY YOU FREED US TO FREE OTHERS. WE HAVE TAKEN THE CROSS AND HAVE USED IT TO BAR UP OUR DOORS- KEEPING US FROM THE LOST AND THE LOST FROM US..." Pray for me.rae.
