Control


Have you ever heard the phrase “out of control?” Have you ever wondered what that meant? Webster says the word control means: To overpower; to subject to authority; to counteract; to have under command.  To have under command so to be out of control would be to not have in command to be overpowered. In Mark chapter 5 we find Jesus being a Psychiatrist, Gynecologist and Pediatrician. He is in control of three different people first there is a man bound in chains abusing himself and a victim of delusions. Then there is a woman who has become the object of a weakening disease that she had carried for 12 years. When the chapter closes we see a little girl that is dead and Jesus restores her life. In all three of these cases we see that Jesus has control over demons, as well as disease but Jesus also has control over death. In all three of these Jesus has control to overpower the demons, He had authority over a disease that was hopeless and then Jesus had the command of life. Well, He has the same power to day as He did then for the Bible says in: 
Malachi 3:6  For I am the LORD, I change not; We have seen a man that was hell bound,  a woman that was helpless and a young girl that was hopeless. And the answer in all three cases was JESUS! What’s the answer in mine and your lives? The same as it was in days gone by JESUS!
