Subtle Reference to the Deity of Christ?

[PointyHaired Calvinist]

“The man whom the demons had left begged to go with Jesus. But He sent him away, saying, “Return home and describe how much God has done for you.” So the man went away and proclaimed all over the town how much Jesus had done for him.”
‭‭Luke‬ ‭8:38-39‬ ‭BSB‬‬

Is this a subtle reference to Christ’s deity? I wouldn’t consider it a proof text, but is Luke equating Jesus with God here?

I would say yes.
