Mark 5
A man with an unclean spirit approached Jesus. He had been bound by chains in the tombs, but they could not tame him. When he approached Jesus, Jesus demanded the demons to come out of the man. The demon told Him that his name was Legion and begged Him not to not punish him. When Jesus was having this exchange with the man, He was having it with the demon inside him, not the man himself. The demon begged Jesus to send him into the pigs, instead of sending him away, so Jesus did just that. He sent him into the thousands of pigs, where the demon was trampled by the pigs and drowned by the sea. The man who had been possessed by the demon had his spirit cleaned and was now in his right mind. The man begged Jesus to take him with Him in the boat, but Jesus commanded him to go to his friends and tell them what great things the Lord had done for him. When Jesus got to land, a man named Jairus came to Him. He begged Him to heal his dying daughter. Immediately after, a bleeding woman approached Jesus and asked Him for his healing touch. She touched His clothing, and was instantly healed. Jesus told her that her faith made her well. It was then when news had come about Jairus’s daughter dying. Jesus went to the house and proclaimed that she was not dead, but in fact just sleeping. He told the twelve year old little girl to arise, and she arose at that second.
