“Immanuel
Delivers Emancipation, Now Triumph In This Year! (I.D.E.N.T.I.T.Y)”
By Ramesh
C.Reddy
Pittsburgh Standard
January,
01, 2009
SCRIPTURE:
"They
went across the lake to the region of the Gerasenes. When Jesus got out
of the boat, a man with an evil spirit came from the tombs to meet him.
This man lived in the tombs, and no one could bind him any more, not
even with a chain. For he had often been chained hand and foot, but he
tore the chains apart and broke the irons on his feet. No one was strong
enough to subdue him. Night and day among the tombs and in the hills he
would cry out and cut himself with stones. When he saw Jesus from a
distance, he ran and fell on his knees in front of him. (Mark 5:1-6, NIV)
Observations:
I asked
myself what happened right after Jesus calmed the storm and talked to
His disciples?
“They went across the
lake to the region of the Gerasenes.
When Jesus got out of
the boat, a man with an evil spirit came from the tombs to meet him.”
(Mark 5:1-2, NIV)
I
asked myself what we can learn about the ‘man with an evil spirit’?
-
This man lived in the tombs.
-
No one could bind him any more,
not even with a chain.
-
He had been chained hand and
foot.
-
He tore the chains apart and
broke the irons on his feet.
-
No one was strong enough to
subdue him.
-
Night and day among the tombs
and in the hills he would cry out.
-
Night and day among the tombs
and in the hills he would cut himself with stones.
-
He saw Jesus from a distance.
-
He ran to Jesus.
-
He fell on his knees in front
of him.
Interpretations:
I asked
myself why the man lived in the tombs?
This man was possessed that the
people of the region of Gerasenes did not want to have anything to do
with him because of his condition. In the region, he must have been
creating chaos because of his evil possession.
Of all the places, they
took the man to the tombs and left him there. Tombs are where the dead
are laid to rest. To the people of the region, he was dead to them and
they did not know him as he was. Instead, they saw someone they could
not control anymore because he was possessed and no one was strong
enough to subdue him. This will become significant later.
I asked
myself why would he cry out and cut himself with stones?
Because of what happened in his
life, he became an outcast, ashamed and isolated from society. The evil
spirit had control of him and no one was strong enough to rescue him. He
wanted to be rescued and the cries were cries of helplessness and
anguish. He was in such a bad shape that he started mutilating himself
with the stones that were at the tomb maybe hoping to die. This too was
not working.
I asked
myself what he does next?
He saw
Jesus!
He ran to
Jesus!
He fell on
his knees in front of Jesus!
I asked
myself why it is significant?
In his condition being
overpowered by the evil spirit did not completely take over his humanity
100%. There was still a part of him that knew good from evil. No matter
how tormented he was, he still had a part of his humanity that was
working. It is what he had left of his humanity that saw Jesus from a
distance. He does not stop there but ran to Jesus. After running to
Jesus with his mutilated cuts and deteriorating condition, he does not
stop there. He takes the final 3rd step and fell on his knees
in front of Jesus. What happens next is evidenced by the following
verses.
"He
shouted at the top of his voice, "What do you want with me, Jesus, Son
of the Most High God? Swear to God that you won't torture me!" For Jesus
had said to him, "Come out of this man, you evil spirit!"
Then Jesus asked him, "What is your name?" "My name is Legion," he
replied, "for we are many." And he begged Jesus again and again not to
send them out of the area. A large herd of pigs was feeding on the
nearby hillside. The demons begged Jesus, "Send us among the pigs; allow
us to go into them." He gave them permission, and the evil spirits came
out and went into the pigs. The herd, about two thousand in number,
rushed down the steep bank into the lake and were drowned." (Mark
5:7-13, NIV)
The man saw Jesus from a
distance and ran to Him. We do not know how far he ran. With the cuts
and everything that was happening in the man’s life, he must have become
exhausted in his condition.
Observations/Interpretations:
I asked
myself what happens next?
When the man fell on his knees
in front of Jesus, Jesus took immediate action. This is evidenced by v.8
“For
Jesus had said to him, "Come out of this man, you evil spirit!" (Mark
5:8, NIV)
I asked
myself why this is significant?
This caused a chain reaction
between the forces of good and evil. After the man fell on his knees in
front of Jesus and Jesus had ordered the evil spirit out of this man,
the battle began in the heavenly realm. The battle was happening outside
the man’s control and the people of the region's control. That is why no
human being was able to subdue him.
Observations:
I asked myself what we learn
about the evil spirit in the man?
-
The evil spirit is in control
of the man.
-
The evil spirit shouted at the
top of the man’s voice taking over the man’s speech.
-
The evil spirit asked Jesus
what Jesus wants with it.
-
The evil spirit acknowledged
Jesus to be the Son of the Most High God.
-
The evil spirit told Jesus that
his name was Legion.
-
The evil spirit told Jesus that
they were many.
-
The evil spirit begged Jesus
AGAIN and AGAIN not to be sent out of the area.
-
The demons begged Jesus to send
them among the pigs.
-
The demons begged Jesus to
allow them to go into the pigs.
-
The demons went into the pigs
and about two thousand of the pigs drowned.
Interpretations:
I asked
myself what is significant about the evil spirit asking Jesus what Jesus
wants with it?
In other words, the evil spirit was asking Jesus why Jesus was
interfering in the man’s life and that it had nothing to do with Him. The evil spirit wanted the man to be left
alone for them. They wanted to continue to torment the man and take over
him. Jesus would not have none of that and intervenes.
This is so significant because I believe when Jesus came to the region
of Gerasenes, he came with the purpose of coming to the aid of the man
who was possessed. Jesus knew no one in the region could subdue the man
so He made himself available to the man to heal him if asked. Jesus
cared for the man in his worst condition and torment. That is so awesome
and cool to know!
I asked
myself what is significant about the evil spirit acknowledging Jesus to
be the Son of the Most High God?
This is very significant because
the evil spirit knew its place and purpose. It also knew who Jesus was
even when the Pharisees and teachers of the law would not acknowledge
who Jesus was. This is also very important because just because someone
acknowledges Jesus to be the Son of the Most High God does not mean they
are saved. We know the demons were not saved. Acknowledging Jesus is not
the same as following Jesus! This becomes important when we are born
into a Christian family. There can be an acknowledgment of Jesus
without having the saving power of Jesus in their lives because they are
not born again. The evil spirit knew that Jesus alone could stop them
and spoil their purpose even though they were many. This is evident by
them begging Jesus.
I asked
myself why is it significant that the evil spirit begged Jesus AGAIN and
AGAIN not to be sent out of the area?
Tombs are a place of death and
destruction usually but not always! It was different for Lazarus. We
also see what happened to Jesus after He died! In general, tombs still
stand for death, destruction, and decay without the intervention of our
Deliverer Jesus Christ on that day when He will come back to take His
own!
The demons wanted to stay in a place that promotes death and
destruction. The man possessed was just a pawn to create havoc and they
wanted to continue to do that. No one could subdue
the man because evil cannot be subdued by evil. Those demons made their
home in that area for a specific reason. They were not threatened and
enjoyed their stay. It is to this region that Jesus came to bring change
and healing. It started with healing one man who was possessed and
tormented. The demons realized they were in a no win situation with
Jesus and He was going to send them out of the area so they now begged
Jesus to send them among the pigs.
I asked
myself why it is significant that the demons begged to go into the pigs?
They knew Jesus came to the
region of Gerasenes to get rid of them and bring healing to the region
through the healing of one man. Those demons had a backup plan and
utilized it. If they could not stay in the area at least they wanted to
go into something that was considered unholy. Pigs were considered
unholy by the Jews. Jesus gave them permission to go into the pigs and
we see what the result was.
“The herd, about two
thousand in number, rushed down the steep bank into the lake and were
drowned.” (Mark 5:13, NIV)
The demons had come out of the
man from tormenting him and went into the pigs. The man was now free
from torment when evil left him. I decided to look at what happens to
the man after this experience some other day.
Implications:
I saw important implications for
my own life from going over Mark 5:1-13. I need to understand torment
and what can cause it. I have been tormented in the past to the point
that it took over me. The torment was too great to handle but Jesus
intervened to help me.
Now I want to put myself in a position where I can help those who are
tormented. This can only happen when evil does not pervade in my own
life for evil cannot fight evil. Our flesh cannot fight evil but the
Spirit of the Living God living in us can help fight it. I need to see
Jesus for who He is, run to Jesus, and fall on my knees in front of Jesus and be delivered. Even through
the torment, I saw deliverance and so can you.
My mission later became
‘Counseling Broken Hearts with the Love of Christ’. Jesus helped me
address issues in people’s lives that I have never faced and also some
issues that I have faced. Through the issues came an online book that
has affected people’s lives in miraculous ways to the point of saving
them too. I thank the Lord for that.
The past decisions of our lives can make us live in torment
especially if we see the results being negative. When torment takes over
it is hard to move forward without outside intervention. Jesus
understood what the man was going through and intervened to give him a
new identity in the present.
When Jesus intervened in the man's life, Jesus gave him a new
IDENTITY, it was like a new year for the man. He could live over again
and so can we when our identity is formed in Jesus Christ this NEW YEAR
OF 2009.
I ask you now dear friend, where is your
identity this New Year of 2009?
Dear friend, the man looked for his identity in Jesus even in his
torment and demon possession. No matter how many demons were controlling
him, a part of him knew good from wrong and he was drawn to Jesus when
he saw Jesus coming. When God comes to heal, no one can stop God's
healing. God initiated the healing process when God calmed the storm and
moved towards the tombs. The man received healing and a new identity in
Christ without outward surgery.
Friend, Jesus wants to give you a new identity this New Year of 2009. I do not know if
you have ever been tormented but torment comes from the enemy because it
also involves condemnation. Torment can be a result of our own sin,
things we have done, and things we have not done. Torment can take over
us and even isolate ourselves from others. Evil can pervade hearts
that make them susceptible to it.
We do not know what the man did to
cause this. We also do not know what was happening in the region of the Gerasenes except that no one there could subdue him and the demons
wanted to remain in that area. As long as the demons wanted to remain
there, it was because it was their comfort zone. Things were happening
there to their liking.
When Jesus came to change that,
they had issue with it. This shows us just as Jesus healed the
demon-possessed man when he saw Jesus, ran to Jesus, and fell on his
knees in front of Jesus for help from this torment, Jesus can do the
same for us no matter what we have been tormented by or are being
tormented by. Yes, He can friend! He loves you so much. Come to Jesus as
you are and find your new IDENTITY in Him.
There are things that may have
happened that you cannot change at all but Jesus wants to bring healing
into your life from this torment. Name the torment and allow Jesus to
heal you there! He wants to deliver you from this torment. Jesus sent
the demons away from the man, from the area and the man was freed. After
the man was freed he left the tombs without staying there. He found a
new identity in Jesus Christ without outward surgery. Leave your past
and torment at the tombs and move forward.
Jesus wants to be your Tower, Refuge, and Strength!
Though
the years have gone by and your life looks like its going nowhere, you
can have a new identity and a new start. Maybe you have messed up badly
and feel like your life will never change, maybe you have been hurt so
badly and feel like it cannot get any worse, maybe you have been stepped
on all your life and feel like you cannot get up anymore. Though you
feel your future seems futile, I want you to know there is hope. Not the
kind of hope that's wishful thinking but a real inspiring hope.
How many
wonderful opportunities you have missed, it's not too late for you to
change your life around. As the New Year of 2009 is here, you can also
become a new person. I don't mean change your name or your face but you
can be changed on the inside that will change your lifestyle on the
outside.
Yes, you
can friend! If you are discouraged and think, there is no way I can have
my life changed around, I want you to know that with Christ all things
are possible.
You have
so much to gain in Christ! Once you surrender your life to Him, you will
not regret it! Yes, friend there is so much to gain with Christ in your
life even if your feelings try to deceive you!
No
friend, I am not preaching the prosperity Gospel that if you come to
Jesus Christ everything will become peachy in your life. No friend, what
I am saying is in this New Year of 2009 with Christ on your side and in
Him as you abide, He will help you through life's tide for His love is
so wide, for you He died and came back to give you a heavenly ride!
Yes,
friend with Jesus you can have a new life. Whatever you are facing, He
will give you the strength to cope for in Him you will find hope. Yes,
you will friend! He can even in His timing turn your situation around
and in joy you can abound.
"If anyone is in Christ, he
is a new creation, all old things are passed away and everything becomes
new!" (2 Cor 5:17)
It is an
awesome promise to claim friend! Yes, it is! There are so many more
wonderful promises to claim in God's Word and lives do change around. My
life did change around and I thank the Lord for it!
Jesus
loves you so much more than anyone can love you. We have limits on love
based on what others do for us but Christ's love for you is
unconditional. If we do so much for those we love and our love is
limited, think about how much Jesus will do for you whose love is
unlimited.
Whether
or not you have a job, a boy or girl friend, family, fame, fun, or
fortune, etc that's not what Christ sees in you. He does not measure
your worth by the job you do, by the people you hang out with, by the
money you make, etc but He measures your worth based on His creation. He
declared His creation good! He created you and loves you so much. Yes,
sin marred that creation but that is why Jesus Christ came into this
world as a baby to one day become the Savior of all who would turn to
Him.
He sees
you as being so precious and special in His sight and wants to take care
of you. No matter where you have been or what you have done, you can
come to the Savior. Your age nor anything does not matter as the Lord
can make an impact in your life. He reaches out to you with helping
hands.
Jesus
went through a DISFIGURATION SURGERY so you can have a new identity in
Him. Jesus was disfigured with a crown of thorns on his head, lashes and
lashes with a whip on his back, nails pounded through the hands and
feet, spear through the side, and multiple beatings.
Watch
the 'Passion of the Christ' to see what Jesus went through for you.
All that
disfiguration happened for your sake friend. Jesus died on the cross and
shed His precious blood on the cross for you so that you can find your
identity in Him. If Jesus dying on the cross was the end of it then
there would be no hope but Jesus' shed blood on the cross was the
beginning. Jesus' shed blood became our antidote for the deadly virus
known as sin. When we are covered in His blood, we can have a new
identity from all the old. Yes, we can friend. His blood will reach us
where we are. His Spirit will begin the transformation of our lives
because Jesus did not stay buried but on the third day rose from the
dead and promised His Holy Spirit to those who would believe Him and
turn to Him for deliverance.
Knowing
Jesus, there is no greater thing. He will be your joy and righteousness.
He will be your new identity. That is exciting to know.
"Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have
summoned you by name; you are mine. "
(Isaiah 43:1b, NIV)
You have
a golden opportunity to start this New Year of 2009 with the Lord on
your side. Let me assure you, the transformation you will see in your
own life. When Christ touches the hearts of those who come to Him, there
life will never be the same again. You will have a totally new
perspective on life as you spend daily time with Him praying and reading
the Bible and being part of a church that believes the entire Bible is
the Word of God and preaches the Word at the pulpit. Even as you face
the storms of life, the winds cannot shake you for you will have a firm
foundation on the Rock, Jesus Christ.
"Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine
and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on
the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and
beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its
foundation on the rock." (Matthew 7:24-25, NIV)
Come to
Jesus as you are this New Year of 2009 and let Him be the Lord and
Savior of your life. No matter what happened all the other years let Him
restore you to new heights.
You do
not have to have all the answers to come to Him but can come to Him as
you are. Yes, you can friend! When I came to the Lord I did not have all
the answers I wanted to know but I came to the Lord in faith and through
the years He has never disappointed me. It has been 23 years that the
Lord Jesus has been in my life and I want Him to be part of my life till
I die and then that day see Him in Heaven face to face! That is exciting
friend, yes it is!
I still
have so much growing pains to go through but Jesus helps me through it
all as I turn to Him.
May you
come to know the Lord Jesus as your Lord and Personal Savior and find
your identity in Jesus Christ alone. May you rest in Him and Him alone
walking with Him this New Year of 2009.
If you
would like to invite Jesus Christ into your heart and make Him a daily
part of your life, you can this very moment. You will never be alone.
You can claim God's promises for you in the Bible and see them come
true, before your eyes, in His wonderful timing. You don't have to wait
for a special time to come to the Lord. You can come right now as you
pray this prayer, meaning it in your heart.
“Immanuel Delivers Emancipation, Now
Triumph In This Year!" (I.D.E.N.T.I.T.Y)/"Where is your I.D.E.N.T.I.T.Y
this New Year of 2009?"
Prayer:
Dear Lord Jesus, thank you so much that we are never out of your love.
No matter what is tormenting us, you are there for us. When there are
days we cannot get through and loneliness has gotten the best of us
because we are isolated in our torment and sin, you are still there.
Just as the demon-possessed man saw you, ran to you, and fell before you
for healing, we can come to you too. Thank you Jesus! You made yourself
available to the man with the evil spirit. Thank you Jesus for making
yourself available to us now when we call your Name for we are never out
of your love and never out of your reach. You Oh Lord know what we have
done; you know what we will do. You know what Satan will do to entice us
and torment us. We come to you Lord and ask you for your healing
presence in our lives. Take any addiction and torment that people face
and fill them with your power to live for you. We know you can do it
Jesus. Only you have the power to deliver us from any torment and find
peace in you. Thank you so much Jesus. We come to you now Jesus and ask
you to forgive us of all our sin. Deliver us Oh Lord and cleanse us with
your cleansing blood. We believe in you Jesus; we believe you are the
Son of God, we believe that you died and rose again; we believe you are
here right now standing in our presence with the power to heal now and
the grace to forgive. Help us Oh Lord as we turn this song “I Believe”
into a prayer to you Oh Lord. Thank you so much for coming into our
heart and making our heart your home as we ask you in. Take us in Oh
Lord and be our Lord and Personal Savior as you lead us and guide us.
Help us to help others as you help us! Thank you so much Jesus you are
in our heart making our heart your home. Thank you for living in us.
Thank you for being our Lord and Personal Savior! Thank you Jesus you
have heard our prayers and answered us! In Your Name I Pray Jesus! Amen!
No matter what you feel in your heart,
know that Jesus has come in and resides with you! You are not alone! To
make your walk strong with the Lord, spend time in prayer talking to Him
as you would to a friend. You don’t need special words to talk to the
Lord. Spend time in His Word reading Psalms and turning them into
prayer. Next allow God to heal you and speak to you through the Gospel
of John or Gospel of
Mark before moving on to other Books of the Bible! Slowly, let the Lord
show you to which Scriptures He wants you to go to next. It is also important to be part of a body of believers to
help you grow in the faith. Find a Bible believing church that preaches
the Word of God from Genesis to Revelation proclaiming Jesus Christ our
crucified and risen Lord who brings us hope, healing, and help! But
beware of churches who do believe in the Word of God completely but
there is no freedom in Christ but legalism involved.
As a professional, it is not too late to join a
church! As a student, it is not too late to join a fellowship on campus this new year of 2009! May the Lord's presence and peace fill you with His
love now and forever! Amen!
Friend, if you have prayed this
prayer and meant it in your heart, you are a new creation in Christ and
all old things are passed away and everything has become new! You may
feel something or may not but don’t base it on feelings but base your
new life in Christ on the promises of our Savior who will never leave
you nor forsake you! Amen!
Spend time in His word and let the Lord
speak to you! Start out in the Gospel of John! You can also check out
the Gospel of Mark which are the devotionals I have been going through.
Learn from Jesus through study and prayer. Also find yourself a church
fellowship and a college fellowship you can be part of where you can be
part of a community of believers to supplement your own walk with the
Lord. Let it be a Bible-believing and Bible-breathing church! Believe in
Bible Live Eternally!
Feel free to email me at
reddy4hisglory2004@yahoo.com if you want to meet to study the Bible,
pray with, talk about Spiritual issues or whatever is on your mind! My

"This is my
work and I can do it only because Christ's mighty energy is at work
within me." (Colossians 1:29, TLB)
