For when a strong man is fully armed and guards his palace, his possessions are safe—22until someone even stronger attacks and overpowers him, strips him of his weapons, and carries off his belongings.23“Anyone who isn’t with me opposes me, and anyone who isn’t working with me is actually working against me.

Jesus replied, “But even more blessed are all who hear the word of God and put it into practice.”

Wherever your treasure is, there the desires of your heart will also be.

Lord God my Father,

May I rely completely on you and your plan, protect me from the deceiver. Give me a heart that is obedient to your calling.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
