📖 Mark 3:27 (KJV) Binding the Strong Man

 

📖 Mark 3:27 (KJV):

“No man can enter into a strong man’s house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strong man; and then he will spoil his house.”

“No man can enter into a strong man’s house, and spoil his goods”

  • The “strong man” represents Satan, who guards his possessions (souls under bondage).

  • No ordinary man can rob him — his power is too great.

📖 Luke 11:21 (KJV):
“When a strong man armed keepeth his palace, his goods are in peace.”

👉 Meaning: On our own, we cannot overcome spiritual bondage.

“Except he will first bind the strong man”

  • Jesus declares His authority — He is the One who binds Satan.

  • Deliverance comes only by Christ’s power, not human strength.

📖 Colossians 2:15 (KJV):
“And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.”

👉 Meaning: At the cross, Jesus disarmed Satan’s power, binding him once for all.

“And then he will spoil his house.”

  • Once the strong man is bound, his captives are set free.

  • Jesus plunders Satan’s kingdom, taking souls out of darkness into light.

📖 Acts 26:18 (KJV):
“To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.”

👉 Meaning: Christ’s mission is liberation — setting captives free and establishing His kingdom.

🙏 Reflective Prayer from Mark 3:27

Abba Father, in the name of Jesus,
I thank You that Jesus is the Stronger One who binds the enemy and sets captives free. Lord Jesus, I praise You that the cross has stripped Satan of his power and authority.

When I feel weak, remind me that the battle is already won. Let me walk in the victory You secured, boldly resisting the enemy and standing firm in Your Word. Use me as a vessel to bring freedom to others, declaring that the strong man is bound and Christ reigns supreme.

In Jesus Almighty name, Amen.

Knowing God and Doing Exploits: A Study on Daniel 11:32

Daniel 11:32 (KJV): "And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits." In a world filled with deception, compromise, and spiritual battles, Daniel 11:32 offers a powerful contrast between those who fall away and those who remain steadfast in their faith. This verse reminds us that intimately knowing God results in spiritual strength and extraordinary action . Let’s dive deeper into what this means and how we can apply it in our lives today. 1. The Context of Daniel 11:32 The book of Daniel contains both historical prophecies and end-time revelations. Daniel 11 specifically details conflicts between powerful kingdoms, particularly focusing on the rule of Antiochus IV Epiphanes, a king who severely persecuted the Jewish people. The first half of the verse ( "And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries" ) speaks about those who compromis...

The Tribe of Benjamin: A Warrior’s Legacy and Biblical Significance

  Introduction The tribe of Benjamin was one of the twelve tribes of Israel, descending from Benjamin, the youngest son of Jacob (Israel) and Rachel . Throughout biblical history, the Benjamites played a crucial role in warfare, leadership, and spiritual significance. Despite moments of near destruction, they remained resilient and left a lasting impact on both the Old and New Testaments. Key Characteristics of the Tribe of Benjamin A Warrior Tribe The Benjamites were known for their exceptional skill in battle. Notably, many were left-handed warriors , giving them a unique strategic advantage (Judges 20:16). Ehud , a judge of Israel, was a left-handed Benjamite who used his skill to assassinate Eglon, the Moabite king (Judges 3:15-23). Strategic Location Their land was centrally located, between Ephraim (north) and Judah (south) (Joshua 18:11-28). This position made them influential in politics, trade, and warfare. King Saul’s Tribe The first king of Israel, Saul , was a Benjami...

Five Ways to Hear God Speak to You

Hearing from God is a transformative experience that deepens one's faith and spiritual understanding. Here are five key practices supported by Scripture that can help you tune in to God's voice: 1. Remain Pure "Purity of heart leads to a clearer vision of God," as Jesus states in Matthew 5:8, "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God." To remain pure, one must strive to live a life free of sin and full of grace.

These verses remind us that purity is not just about avoiding wrongdoing, but actively seeking renewal through God's grace. 2.
