Scripture Reading: Mark 5:1-20
Focus Verse: Luke 15:6 "Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost."
Satan is never happy when someone is receiving help. In this passage in scripture we see the devil trying to prevent Jesus and His disciples from reaching the tortured man living among the tombs. How many times when we have tried to help someone, do we run into difficulties? Satan is will do all in his power to prevent us from helping someone in Jesus name. But don't be discouraged for we know that "greater is He (Christ) that is in us, than he (Satan) that is in the world." The love and concern that we show the world is how the world will be won for Christ.
It is also very important how Christians treat each other because we are to be merciful as He has shown mercy. The world is watching how we act. If we are not treating each other with love and respect, the world will say "why should they become a Christian if we act the same as them?
Reach out to someone today in Jesus name that needs help. Don't expect anything in return. Great will be your reward in heaven one day.
