"And when it comes, it finds it swept and put in order."
Luke 11:25


Jesus is talking about a man possessed who was cleansed of the unclean spirit. When finding nowhere to go the spirit returns and finds the mind "in order", but empty and brings in seven more with it.

When we (I) accepted Jesus into our lives it was an amazing time for us. We had this new found freedom in our salvation. Then, life happens and our old self comes creeping back. Our mind along with our souls were born again and finally in order but remain empty unless we fill it with the word of God giving the "spirit" of our past an opportunity to come back like a lion.

Lord thank you for my new eternal life, keep me in your word, my mind full.
