Amazed and Obedient to Jesus the Son of God. Mark, 1:21b-28


 The strange diseases of Jesus' time that the physicians could not treat were often viewed as the result of possession.  Such people are usually isolated.  But there was a man who was possessed and came to hear the message of Jesus.  Of course the news of the Kingdom of God is near, repent and believe in the gospel.  Apparently the evil spirit hiding in the man could not stand to hear the message of Jesus.  He shouted, using the poor man's mouth.


 What have you to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth.  Have you come to destroy us?  I know who You are, the Holy One of God.


 The forces of evil do know who this Jesus of Nazareth is.  There is a sacred area that does not allow evil spirits to move.  And that territory belongs to this Jesus of Nazareth.  His superiority was clearly felt and this is what people witnessed then and is preached to us today.


 They also wonder, who really is He whose authority is recognized even though the evil spirit flocks use the word us.  The demons felt threatened and trembled in the presence of the Nazarenes who were so close to the Most Holy God.  Jesus rebuked and told the Spirit to be quiet and brought it out of the poor man who wanted to draw near to Jesus.


 We are also invited to draw closer to the person of Jesus.  The admiration of those who knew Jesus at that time was conveyed to us so that we dare to come closer and listen to Jesus.  Let's live in God.  Not only admire Him but also know and obey His Word.

Kerajaan Allah Hadir Di Tengah Kita

Kerajaan Allah Hadir Di Tengah Kita Saudaraku terkasih, sering kita bertanya dan merenung tentang bagaimana Kerajaan Allah itu hadir di tengah-tengah kita? Apakah itu bertumbuh dalam hidup kita? Dan bagaimana pertumbuhannya? Pertanyaan ini bisa dijawab lewat bacaan Injil hari ini. Kalau kita mengamati bibit tanaman, entah ubi, jeruk, kol, cabai, di ladang atau di kebun, proses pertumbuhannya tidaklah kita lihat secara detail tetapi semakin lama tanaman itu menjadi besar hingga membuahkan hasil. Proses itu akan menjadi lebih jelas kalau tanaman itu disiangi dan dipupuk dengan baik. Tuhan Yesus dalam menghadirkan Kerajaan Allah seperti pertumbuhan tanaman. Jika iman kita dipupuk dan dibangun tentu akan membuahkan hasil yang baik dalam kehidupan yang nyata. Benih itu akan bertumbuh bersama dengan cinta Allah dalam kehidupan kita. Setiap hari lewat berdoa, merenungkan firman Tuhan, berdevosi kepada orang-orang kudus, disinilah kelihatan iman itu akan bertumbuh seperti biji sawi yang...

Hope for the Coming of the Messiah Luke, 1:39-45

Five more days to Christmas Day.  The days counting down to Christmas Day are referred to as days of hope and wonder. Christmas is a time of gifts and presents not only for Christians but also for those who take the opportunity to celebrate it.  Are we still hoping and wondering will get a Christmas present?  Do we expect to get what we want?  Hope is the mother of disappointment.  Try to see the funny side of this hope so that we are not too sad and disappointed.  There was a mother wondering what her husband would give her as a Christmas present, she then made an excuse and told her husband, last night I dreamed that I was wearing a diamond necklace.  I wonder what it means.  Her husband replied, mi will know tonight.  When the husband came home from work at night, he carried a gift wrapper in his hand while giving it to his wife and telling her to open it.  The wife was very happy and excited to open the gift.  And it turned out ...
