"Now the man out of whom the devils were departed besought him that he might be with him: but Jesus sent him away, saying, Return to thine own house, and show how great things God hath done unto thee." Luke 8:38,39
Our challenge today!

Once again we see a common instruction that is shown throughout God's word. Many of us just want to straightway follow Jesus and be used in his ministry, forgetting our loved ones and the message that Jesus has for them through our salvation. Jesus tells this man, “no”, you must not follow me to this land, but rather return to your own house and show them what great things that have happened in your life. Why? Our own home will know more about who we were before the miracle and will be a testimony to God's power. What wisdom God has! Great is He and greatly to be praised! He knows exactly how to win the lost!
