Probably the most famous exorcism Jesus performed was that of the demoniac Legion from the possessed man (or men) who had been living in a graveyard. This miracle was performed soon after Jesus calmed a storm on the Sea of Galilee. And it demonstrates Jesus’ power to calm both storms in nature and storms in our lives.

Scriptures referenced include Mark 4:35-41 and Mark 5:1-20.
