Pensamento:
Louva a Deus! Jesus entrou na casa do Homem Forte. Ele o amarrou. E, o que ele trouxe da casa do Homem Forte? Um tesouro enterrado, claro! E aquele tesouro é nós!
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Jesus is quoting a general truism that was popular in his day but was using the "strong man" saying to refer to Satan. Satan is the strong man that had us bound by sin and death and Jesus broke into the house and stole us back because he could bind the strong man. He did this by becoming human and facing death with complete obedience to God and then rose from the dead to defeat death and give us life! Praise God! Jesus broke into the Strong Man's house. He overpowered him and bound him. And, what did he bring out of the Strong Man's house? Buried treasure, of course! And that treasure is us!!
