The Whole Story: A Life in God's Kingdom, Part OneSýnishorn

Daily Reflection: In Mark 5:1-13, we see an unclean spirit inside of a man both recognize and confess that Jesus is the Son of the Most High God. This unclean spirit knew God’s power and knew that he was no match for it. This same principle can be applied to any lesser god, principality, or power of darkness. They are no match for our God – the Most High God. In the end, every knee shall bow, and every tongue shall confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. God’s family is the safest, most comforting place to be. Anywhere else, and you’ll find yourself cowering in fear – as evidenced by the man in this story.

Daily Demonstration: You are now 16 days into this season of prayer and fasting. Great job! In what ways do you feel safer? More comforted? Spend some time in prayer today, asking the Lord if there is an area of your life that hasn’t bowed to his Lordship. If he reveals something, demonstrate your loyalty to him by laying that thing aside once and for all.
