Mark 5 - Praying God's Word

Please read Mark 5.

Meditate on verse 17a.

And they began to implore Him…

There was a lot of begging in Mark 5. The demons begged Jesus not to send them out of the country; they begged Him to send them into a herd of swine instead (vs. 10-12). When the people in the region heard about the man delivered from the demons and about the drowned pigs, they begged Jesus to leave them (v. 17). The man, who had been demon-possessed, begged to go with Jesus (v. 18). And a synagogue official named Jairus begged Jesus to save his dying little girl (vs. 22-23).

Do you relate to anyone in this chapter? Do you want to be with Christ, excited about what He is doing in your life and the lives of others, or does the miraculous make you nervous, so you would rather not be around it? Are you seeking the LORD and asking Him to save those you love, knowing that simply touching the hem of His garment brings healing (v. 28)?

Pray Mark 5:33 and 36 over yourself and those for whom you stand guard as a faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).

“LORD, I come and fall down before You.

I want to tell You the whole truth about ___________.

Help ________ and me not be afraid any longer; may we only believe.

In Your name, Jesus~”
