Today we conclude the POWER OF JESUS series with the study of an unusual miracle and scolding by Jesus. We see a particularly difficult demon that Jesus confronts. And we see that His power is beyond that of all others.
Today we see a passage of Scripture that is unique to the Bible and to most other literature. It is a story where Jesus reveals to His disciples His true Nature, and He talks with two dead heroes of the faith. It is important to understand why this story is included in Scriptures, and it is important to know that Jesus is truly God.
Each week of this preaching series we have opened our ears to hear the ‘Power of Jesus.’ Today we find Jesus telling what would happen in the future. More than this, it becomes clear that Jesus has power to see the specific fulfillment of the plan of God. In the midst of Jesus’ declaration of what would happen to him, he asks all who will hear to recognize him for who he is – God’s messiah.
Today we see Jesus sharing His power with the disciples, and then see the extent of His power as He feeds thousands of people with only a few provisions. This story is well-known, but maybe not so well understood. In this study, we will try to see WHY Jesus would feed 5,000 people. It will help us understand WHO He truly is.
Today we continue our study of the POWER OF JESUS by seeing His incredible power of a long-term disease and death itself. In this story, we are reminded that He didn’t just HAVE power; He WAS power. These stories help us sense the sorrow of disease and death, and yet the joy of One who overcomes them both.
Today we see a story of incredible power over the underworld as Jesus confronts more than a thousand demons at one time. In this story, we are reminded that the Gentiles mattered to Jesus too, and that he made an extra effort to minister to them. We also learn much about demons and their fears.
