OCTOBER 27 – SAVES

10/27 Luke 8:51-53
When they arrived at the house, Jesus wouldn’t let anyone go in with him except Peter, James, John, and the little girl’s father and mother. 52 The house was filled with people weeping and wailing, but he said, “Stop the weeping! She isn’t dead; she is only asleep.” 53 But the crowd laughed at him because they all knew she had died.
SAVES
Jesus saves. He saves us physically. He saves us emotionally. Jesus saves us spiritually. Jesus saves and He will save you if you ask Him.

OCTOBER 26 – TRUST

10/26 Luke 8:49-50
While he was still speaking to her, a messenger arrived from Jairus’s home with the message, “Your little girl is dead. There’s no use troubling the Teacher now.” 50 But when Jesus heard what had happened, he said to Jairus, “Don’t be afraid. Just trust me, and she will be all right.”
TRUST
Trust the Lord. He loves you. Live your life with courage and peace Jesus loves you. He will not mislead you. He is trustworthy and we can trust Him. Trust the Lord. Jesus loves you.

OCTOBER 25 – KNOWS

10/25 Luke 8:43-48
And there was a woman in the crowd who had had a hemorrhage for twelve years. She had spent everything she had on doctors and still could find no cure. 44 She came up behind Jesus and touched the fringe of his robe. Immediately, the bleeding stopped. 45 “Who touched me?” Jesus asked. Everyone denied it, and Peter said, “Master, this whole crowd is pressing up against you.” 46 But Jesus told him, “No, someone deliberately touched me, for I felt healing power go out from me.” 47 When the woman realized that Jesus knew, she began to tremble and fell to her knees before him. The whole crowd heard her explain why she had touched him and that she had been immediately healed. 48 “Daughter,” he said to her, “your faith has made you well. Go in peace.”
KNOWS
Jesus knows you. No matter where you are, where you have gone, how bad things have gotten Jesus knows you.

OCTOBER 24 – COME

10/24 Luke 8:40-42
On the other side of the lake the crowds received Jesus with open arms because they had been waiting for him. 41 And now a man named Jairus, a leader of the local synagogue, came and fell down at Jesus’ feet, begging him to come home with him. 42 His only child was dying, a little girl twelve years old. As Jesus went with him, he was surrounded by the crowds.
COME
Jesus please come with me today as I live my life. Guide my feet. Guard my mouth. Help me Lord to do only those things that are pleasing to you. Enable my obedience. Encourage me as I live for YOU.

OCTOBER 23 – TELL

10/23 Luke 8:38-39
The man who had been demon possessed begged to go, too, but Jesus said, 39 “No, go back to your family and tell them all the wonderful things God has done for you.” So he went all through the city telling about the great thing Jesus had done for him.
TELL
Our witness is to tell everyone about what Jesus has done for us. Remember the miracles. Remember your interaction. Jesus is alive and He lives in us. Obey Him and tell the world about your relationship.

OCTOBER 22 – YOU

10/22 Luke 8:36-37
Then those who had seen what happened told the others how the demon-possessed man had been healed. 37 And all the people in that region begged Jesus to go away and leave them alone, for a great wave of fear swept over them. So Jesus returned to the boat and left, crossing back to the other side of the lake.
YOU
You are in charge of your life. You are responsible for what you do. Claim Jesus and He will claim you. Let the Lord of life bring real life into your life. He will equip you to lead a joyous life in the face of chaos and problems. Jesus is the reason we can have joy.

OCTOBER 21 – FEAR

10/21 Luke 8:34-35
When the herdsmen saw it, they fled to the nearby city and the surrounding countryside, spreading the news as they ran. 35 A crowd soon gathered around Jesus, for they wanted to see for themselves what had happened. And they saw the man who had been possessed by demons sitting quietly at Jesus’ feet, clothed and sane. And the whole crowd was afraid.
FEAR
Jesus brings peace and joy to us. If you know Him, He will give you His peace and you will have joy. The world hates and fears Jesus. He is light and His light shines in the darkness and reveals its evil. Accept Jesus and His light shines on you to help you see the way you should go.

OCTOBER 20 – JESUS

10/20 Luke 8:32-33
A large herd of pigs was feeding on the hillside nearby, and the demons pleaded with him to let them enter into the pigs. Jesus gave them permission. 33 So the demons came out of the man and entered the pigs, and the whole herd plunged down the steep hillside into the lake, where they drowned.
JESUS
Jesus knows what is going on. Nothing surprises Him. Trust your life to Him and He will guide you in the right way.

OCTOBER 19 – LEGION

10/19 Luke 8:30-31
“What is your name?” Jesus asked. “Legion,” he replied — for the man was filled with many demons. 31 The demons kept begging Jesus not to send them into the Bottomless Pit.
LEGION
Jesus cleans us up and sends our spiritual troubles to a bottomless pit. As long as we let Jesus lead, guide and direct us those spiritual troubles will not return. If we focus our heart on ourselves we will constantly be overrun by the world. If we focus our heart on Jesus and obey Him the world will be defeated. Walk with Jesus.

OCTOBER 18 – CONTROL

10/18 Luke 8:26-29
So they arrived in the land of the Gerasenes, across the lake from Galilee. 27 As Jesus was climbing out of the boat, a man who was possessed by demons came out to meet him. Homeless and naked, he had lived in a cemetery for a long time. 28 As soon as he saw Jesus, he shrieked and fell to the ground before him, screaming, “Why are you bothering me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? Please, I beg you, don’t torture me!” 29 For Jesus had already commanded the evil spirit to come out of him. This spirit had often taken control of the man. Even when he was shackled with chains, he simply broke them and rushed out into the wilderness, completely under the demon’s power.
CONTROL
When presented with the worst Jesus prevailed. He cleansed the demon possessed. He will cleanse you. Jesus will fix what is wrong in your life and will equip you to lead a Godly life. Ask Him into your heart if you haven’t. If you have then let Him come into your life with power and peace. Joy to the world the Lord has come.
