Matthew 8: 28-34- Facing the Pigs
Read Matthew 8: 28- 34- We need to be careful we do not find ourselves in situations where we push God away from us. Jesus did the miraculous when he cast demons out of two men. The demons knew who they were facing at that point and begged for a way to get away from Jesus . The people obviously had not seen anything this dramatic before where the pigs who found themselves posses sed by the demons ran squealing off a nearby cliff. The people did not know how to react. The people ran, no differently than the demon-possessed p igs. In verse 34, ‘And behold, all the city came out to meet Jesus, and when they saw Him, they begged Him to leave their region.’ Those people did not know who Jesus was. They decided they did not want to know who Jesus was. Fear controlled them. We need to know God will do great things in our lives and we need to be ready for those times, not run a nd hide from the hand of God.
