Rushed Down - Matthew 8:30-32

Matthew 8:30-32 ESV 

Now a herd of many pigs was feeding at some distance from them. And the demons begged him, saying, “If you cast us out, send us away into the herd of pigs.” And he said to them, “Go.” So they came out and went into the pigs, and behold, the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the sea and drowned in the waters.

The Lord continues to free us from the domain of the prince of the air. The demon(s) of the world then flees to the darkness of the deep. This is the sea of mankind that refuse to walk in the land of the living. These unclean and demon possessed pigs rush to their destruction and so it is for those who travel down that wide road. Narrow is the way that leads to the mountain of God. 

In the beginning God separated the land from the sea. The light from darkness. In these last days He separates the wheat from the chaff and the goats from the sheep. A new creation is underway where heaven and earth are joined and the sea is no more.
