Daily Sacrifice, June 22 (1:34)
“He healed many that were sick of divers diseases, and cast out many devils; and suffered not the devils to speak, because they knew Him”— Mark 1:34.
THESE unclean spirits recognized in Him the One who was to pronounce sentence of judgment upon them. In the unseen world no one doubts the Deity of Christ, Angels gladly confess it. Demons acknowledge it, and men and women who have gone into the other world know His power and authority. It is only on earth that any dare dispute it. He silenced the demons, as He did not desire testimony from them. But He delights in the recognition by men of His true nature and being (Matt. 16:16, 17; John 20:28, 29).
