Mark 1:21-32

New International Version (NIV)

Jesus Drives Out an Impure Spirit

21 They went to Capernaum, and when the Sabbath came, Jesus went into the synagogue and began to teach. 22 The people were amazed at his teaching, because he taught them as one who had authority, not as the teachers of the law. 23 Just then a man in their synagogue who was possessed by an impure spirit cried out, 24 “What do you want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are—the Holy One of God!”

25 “Be quiet!” said Jesus sternly. “Come out of him!” 26 The impure spirit shook the man violently and came out of him with a shriek.

27 The people were all so amazed that they asked each other, “What is this? A new teaching—and with authority! He even gives orders to impure spirits and they obey him.” 28 News about him spread quickly over the whole region of Galilee.

Jesus Heals Many

29 As soon as they left the synagogue, they went with James and John to the home of Simon and Andrew. 30 Simon’s mother-in-law was in bed with a fever, and they immediately told Jesus about her.31 So he went to her, took her hand and helped her up. The fever left her and she began to wait on them.

32 That evening after sunset the people brought to Jesus all the sick and demon-possessed.

  • My God we should trust Gid totally and not doubt because he has the power to do anything exceedingly above all we could think or ask Ne'eman

    Pastor LaShawn (4D) Davis said:

    Here again, the impure spirit recognizes Who Jesus is, His position, and His authority. And immediately they wanted to know if they were gonna be destroyed.

    Now this account is in direct contrast to the other reading. In this account, the people were excited by Jesus' authority, and they initiated a healing and deliverance service.

    I think it's also great to note that when Jesus healed Simon's mother in law, He didn't even speak a word, not a prayer... he simply took her hand and helped her up. Her turn around was immediate as she begin to serve them. 

    What power and authority is that??!!! And to think, that's the same authority and power that we as joint heirs with Christ share.

    With soo many self proclaimed and self professed Christians around... why in the world is there even need for a hospital when we are to walk in that kind of authority? Hmmmm....

  • Wow, the power of God is so awesome, and limitless. Thank you Lord for all you do in the unseen realm!

  • Jesus was working!
  • jesus will set you free

    Demons know who Jesus is, they fear the Lord  Jesus Christ. As the Lord sends; His people out into the hedges and highways to heal the sick, raise the dead, cast out demons, in Luke 10: 19 says, Behold I have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing by any means will hurt you...

    I am also reminded of the Seven sons of one Sceva, they tried to cast out an evil spirits from a man using the name of Jesus, and the evil spirit answered and said to them, "I recognize Jesus, and I know about Paul, but who are you?" And the man, in whom was the evil spirit, leaped on them and subdued all of them and overpowered them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.  These men, were not  associated with the Lord, but they had used the Lord's name. They claimed to be servants of God. A lesson to those of us today who need to learn how to discern between true and false ministries, teachings and prophecies.
