THE HEALING OF THE MIND - A BUTTERFLY JOURNEY

"Hurt People Hurt People, but Healed People Help People"

BE TRANSFORMED BY THE RENEWING OF YOUR MIND.

Romans 12:2 NIV

Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.

THE BEGINNING OF THE STORY IS NOT THE END OF THE STORY

Mark 5:2, 5-8 NKJV

(2) And when He had come out of the boat, immediately there met Him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit, ...

(5) And always, night and day, he was in the mountains and in the tombs, crying out and cutting himself with stones. (6) When he saw Jesus from afar, he ran and worshiped Him. (7) And he cried out with a loud voice and said, "What have I to do with You, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I implore You by God that You do not torment me." (8) For He said to him, "Come out of the man, unclean spirit! ..."

John 10:10 NIV

Jesus says, "The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full."

SET FREE TO BE FREE TO LIVE GOD'S WAY!

Mark 5:15 NKJV

"When they came to Jesus, they saw the man who had been possessed by the legion of demons, sitting there, dressed and in his right mind; and they were afraid".

SET FREE FOR PURPOSE IN HIS HOME REGION OF DECAPOLIS

Mark 5:18-20 NKJV

As Jesus was getting into the boat, the man who had been demon-possessed begged to go with him. (19) Jesus did not let him, but said, "Go home to your own people and tell them how much the Lord has done for you, and how he has had mercy on you." (20) So the man went away and began to tell in the Decapolis how much Jesus had done for him. And all the people were amazed

JESUS THEN HEALS MANY PEOPLE IN DECAPOLIS.

Mark 7:31 NIV

Then Jesus left the vicinity of Tyre and went through Sidon, down to the Sea of Galilee and into the region of the Decapolis.

Mark 7:37 NIV

People were overwhelmed with amazement. "He has done everything well," they said. "He even makes the deaf hear and the mute speak."

JESUS FEEDS 4,000 IN DECAPOLIS

About four thousand were present…

1. It's "OK to be not OK" when you come to Jesus. But as a Good Father, God wants to heal us and make us ready for life purpose

2. Jesus healed all who came and asked for help. Jesus' healing is not limited by our past stories. ... He just offers healing.

3. Inner healing leads to renewed purpose in life.
