Can you bear with Jesus’ presence and His miracles?

At first place, certainly we will respond: yes. Nonetheless, see this episode:

• Mat 8:31-34 -> “And the demons begged Him, saying, If You cast us out, allow us to go away into the herd of swine. And He said to them, Go! And when they had come out, they went into the herd of swine. And behold, the whole herd of swine ran violently down a steep place into the sea and perished in the waters. And those who fed them fled. And going into the city, they told everything, and what had happened to the ones who had been possessed of demons. And behold, the whole city came out to meet Jesus. And when they saw Him, they begged that He would depart out of their borders.”.

Did you thought in the damage that those who fed them had? Many people think that Jesus comes to make our business prosper. However, and if your business is ilegal in the eyes of the Creator?

In this case, for example, it’s good to remember that it was forbidden to Israel’s people to eat pork. Certainly, the Gadarenes tasted so much pork and used to make barbecue of it. And the smell of this flesh probably was a temptation to Israel. So, Jesus allowed the death of all these pigs in order to free Israel.

So, Jesus’ presence is something very marvelous. Nevertheless, it is good to recall that He will shake everything that can shudder our communion with Him (Heb 12:25-27). The Holy Spirit is bestowed us to get us around in regard to the sin, justice and judgment (John 16:8).

In the end, have a good day accepting the cleanness of the Holy Spirit in your life (Titus 3:4-6) so that only what is good for you and people around you stay.
