  1. Jesus’ Miracles Matthew 8:23-8:34

  2. Who? • Jesus • His disciples • “Legion” of demons

  3. What? • Jesus calms the storm • Jesus heals two men possessed with demons

  4. When? • Jesus has just been to Capernaum where He healed the Centurion’s daughter. • He is now traveling to the region of the Gadarenes.

  5. Where? • The Sea of Galilee & • “The region of the Gadarenes” • Notes: • Capernaum was a predominantly Jewish city and is where Jesus was just prior to crossing the Sea of Galilee • Gadara & Gerasa were in a gentile region. A hint to this is the swine mentioned in the account • Crossing the Jordan most likely means crossing from Jewish into a Gentile or Pagan region.

  6. Why? • To show that He is God • To show us that He is able “to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think” (Ephesians 3:20-21)

  7. Scripture Comparison: Calming the Storm • Read Psalm 107:28-32. • Does this add any insight to our Matthew passage? (Matt 8:23-27) • What should we do in response to Jesus’ “calming of the storm”? • Read Mark 4:36-41. • How does Mark’s account differ? • How is it the same? • How can we apply this passage? • Read Luke 8:23-25 • How does Luke’s account differ? • How is it the same? • How can we apply this passage?

  8. Scripture Comparison: Healing the demon-possessed men • Read Mark 9:17-29. • How does this different instance differ from our passage (Matt 8:28-34) • How is it the same? • How can we apply this passage? • Read Mark 5:1-20. • How does Mark’s account differ? • How is it the same? • How can we apply this passage? • Read Luke 8:26-39 • How does Luke’s account differ? • How is it the same? • How can we apply this passage?

  9. How do we apply this? • Acknowledge Him as God. • Don’t be anxious…He is able to overcome ANYTHING. • Remember that we must have faith. Only by His power are we able to overcome, so we must have faith in Him. • We can be reassured in temptation. We can ask Him to help us through our temptation. This means we have even less of an excuse to sin.
