Binding the Strong Man

“No one can break into a strong man’s house and plunder his goods unless the strong man is himself first bound; then his house may be plundered.” (Mark 3:27)

Christ comes and binds the strong man of Satan and releases us, giving us liberty from our captivity. We continue in this liberty by recognizing the work of the Holy Spirit in our liberation and by recognizing the work of the Holy Spirit in our lives. We must avail ourselves of the work of the Holy Spirit within us, and not ignore the calling of the Holy Spirit.
