He see that demons can cause blindness and deafness and must be cast out for healing in such cases to occur.
People were amazed seeing this but Pharisees accused Jesus of using demonic power to cast out demons. They were jealous that they could not do what Jesus did and that He was becoming more popular than they.
Are you jealous when you find others doing what you are unable to do? Do you attribute a wrong motive when you see someone do something? Learn to appreciate when God uses others in ways that He doesn't use you.
Jesus explained that a kingdom divided against itself will not stand. His casting out demons by God's power symbolized coming of God's kingdom.
For you to enter a strong man's house and plunder, you first must bind him. That's why it's important to bind the demonic activities when doing evangelism.
When you are not actively with the Lord is against Him. There is no middle place.
All manner of sin can be forgiven except blasphemy against the Holy Spirit. Be very careful.
Make a tree good and automatically the fruit will be good. That is when your heart is full of evil, it will come out through the mouth and vice versa.
A good man out of the inner treasures of his heart produces good things and vice versa.
What you treasure in your heart comes through the mind. The mind is fed through the eyes and the ears. Therefore, what you expose yourself to, through reading and watching and listening find it's way to the heart and as we all know; GARBAGE IN, GARBAGE OUT. Be therefore careful about what you allow in you mind. Guard your heart with all diligence for it determines the course of your life. Prov 4:23
In the day of Judgment, we shall give an ACCOUNT OF EVERY IDLE WORD THAT WE SPEAK e.g the promises we make and never keep and all meaningless words in our conversation. Set right the thing you need to set right, for at the judgment you will not have such opportunity. Do it at the first opportunity.
For your words will be used to justify you or condemn you. Whether you did what you said you'd do or not.
An evil and adulterous generation seeks a miraculous sign; but the only sign given is the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. A generation only interested in miracles and not godliness is an evil generation
The preaching of Jonah led people to repentance but those who listened to Jesus did not repent and were only interested in the miracles that Jesus performed. Have you repented? Or are you only interested in what you can get from God?
When an unclean spirit is casted out of a man,if he does not fill that space with something good, the end result will be worse than the first. For example if you are delivered from murmuring and complaining,if you don't fill that with Thanksgiving, you will be a greater murmurer that you were at first.
If you read polluting literature and you don't replace it with reading Gods words and godly articles, you will fall in a deeper pit than you were before.
Once as Jesus was preaching, His parents and brothers probably came late for the meeting and found all the seats had been occupied and they sent one usher to tell Jesus that they were outside so that they would be given honour and some seat sought for them to sit Infront. But Jesus sermon wouldn't be distracted even by His parents, He said that all we who do His Fathers will are his father, mother, brother and sister and of course continued with the sermon.
Do you allow yourself to be distracted when doing God's will? Learn from Jesus.
You are blessed to be a blessing
