In Luke chapter 8, the physician-evangelist Luke captures a series of monumental events that demonstrate the absolute authority of Jesus Christ. As part of our study on the “All Power” of God, we look at one specific sphere of authority: Nature.

When we examine the life of Christ, we aren’t just looking at a master teacher; we are looking at the Superintendent of the Universe.

Weather patterns, demons, disease, and death are all defeated by the all-powerful Jesus.

Today, we examine the account of the Gadarene demoniac—a narrative that reveals the depth of human desperation and the definitive power of the Savior.

In Luke chapter 8, we encounter a remarkable “interwoven” miracle. As we conclude the “All Power” series, we see Jesus moving from the early days of His ministry in Galilee toward two lives at a crossroads: a woman who had been sick for twelve years and a young girl who was twelve years of age.
This passage demonstrates that Jesus is not merely a master teacher or a historical figure; He is the Superintendent of…

Jairus and the woman both had to make a choice. They exercised their free will to seek Christ, and He exercised His sovereignty to perform the miracle. Jesus is the Answer to our most desperate sit…

I read about an incident that occurred back in 2004. A fight broke out among the residents of a nursing home in their dining hall. One man was playing with the lettuce in the serving line with his bare hands. From that, a fight ensued. A 62-year-old and an 86-year-old started to trade “punches.” Then, a 79-year-old was bitten in the arm. The mother of the 62-year-old man was cut in the arm, and a 92-year-old man was shoved to the floor as other residents ran away from the dining hall.
The point of sharing this story is that time and age do not guarantee a person will grow “out of” anger issues. We cannot hope that one day a person’s wrath will be appeased simply because he or she reaches a certain age. The only way to grow out of any sin is to grow more like Jesus. What we do in and with our time is more important than how much time has expired. We need to make the most of the time and space we have to grow.

Elijah was tired. He had a mountaintop experience, both literally and spiritually. On Mount Carmel, he called on God, and God sent fire from Heaven to prove that He was the One, True God. 1 Kings 18 is an amazing chapter of the confrontation of the 450 prophets of Baal with the Prophet Elijah and the Lord. Elijah was facing the religious leaders, the political leaders (Ahab and Jezebel), and the entire population of Israel.
The top of Mount Carmel is somewhat rounded, and as I walked around there years ago on a Holy Land pilgrimage, I imagined hundreds of people circling the pinnacle, watching to see what would happen.

It was intense. It was emotionally and spiritually draining. Elijah was spent. He was tired. Standing up to the Satanic forces of the false god Baal and the false prophets was a real challenge.…
