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

Daily Reflection: A house is only as strong as its foundation, and therefore a house on a sturdy foundation will hold strong. In Mark 3:21-27, Jesus uses this parable to teach about the opposing kingdoms in the lives of his family. On the one hand, there is a Kingdom built upon the characteristics of God. On the other hand, there is a kingdom that is divided against itself built upon the enemy. With Jesus at the helm, the family of God can take down the enemy and bring down the fallen kingdoms of the world. To plunder the house, you must overcome the strongman – and we have King Jesus to help!

Daily Demonstration: Believe it or not, you are already eight days into this fast. You are doing so well! Take time to evaluate your surroundings today. Are there any obstacles in your family or friendships that have caused division and strife? Ask God to both reveal those things and the ways you can work to fix them. Perhaps as your house becomes more united, so will the world around you.
