Jesus Heals a Man with an Unclean Demon

31 And he went down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee. And he was teaching them on the Sabbath, 32 and they were astonished at his teaching, for his word possessed authority. 33 And in the synagogue there was a man who had the spirit of an unclean demon, and he cried out with a loud voice, 34 “Ha! 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.” 35 But Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be silent and come out of him!”

And when the demon had thrown him down in their midst, he came out of him, having done him no harm. 36 And they were all amazed and said to one another, “What is this word? For with authority and power he commands the unclean spirits, and they come out!” 37 And reports about him went out into every place in the surrounding region.

Jesus Heals Many

38 And he arose and left the synagogue and entered Simon’s house. Now Simon’s mother-in-law was ill with a high fever, and they appealed to him on her behalf. 39 And he stood over her and rebuked the fever, and it left her, and immediately she rose and began to serve them.

40 Now when the sun was setting, all those who had any who were sick with various diseases brought them to him, and he laid his hands on every one of them and healed them. 41 And demons also came out of many, crying, “You are the Son of God!” But he rebuked them and would not allow them to speak, because they knew that he was the Christ.

Jesus Preaches in Synagogues

42 And when it was day, he departed and went into a desolate place. And the people sought him and came to him, and would have kept him from leaving them, 43 but he said to them, “I must preach the good news of the kingdom of God to the other towns as well; for I was sent for this purpose.” 44 And he was preaching in the synagogues of Judea.

PASTOR TO PEOPLE

One of the things I’ve discovered as I’ve traveled is just how well the Bible speaks to various cultures. For example, in the passage we’re looking at this Sunday, Luke 4:31–44, we see Jesus demonstrating His power over both supernatural evil forces and biological human dysfunction. Jesus is Lord over demons and diseases. His power triumphs over all.

Here in the West, we struggle to see the wonder and beauty of passages like these. We’re skeptical of the supernatural, and place much of our hope in the pharmaceutical. Why do we need Jesus when we can solve so many of our problems on our own? For many, Jesus becomes a last resort, after we exhaust all other options.

But so many in this world, especially those in the global South, see our vulnerabilities to evil and the fragility of life with superior clarity. They feel the oppression of disease. They know the burden of the demonic. They rightly want to know where the Power lies in this universe. And so when they read passages like these, they see it for the liberating power encounter that it is.

Jesus is the all-powerful Son of God. He is the Master of all creation. He is Lord over all the powers. He is the Defeater of the diabolical. Before Him every knee shall bow. And if Jesus is for us, nothing can stand against us.

I’m grateful for the way our global brothers and sisters open our eyes to the wonder and beauty of Jesus, whose power triumphs over all! For in Him, we are loved, more than we know!
