Build the Home First
Scripture
“But as for me and my family, we will serve the Lord.” — Joshua 24:15 NLT
Devotion
Pastor Darren reminded us that before the church can be strong, the home must be guarded. The family is one of the first places the enemy attacks because he knows that broken homes affect generations.
Nehemiah stationed families together on the wall. He understood that the fight was not just for stones and gates. It was for sons, daughters, wives, husbands, brothers, and homes.
Your home is a mission field. Your children and grandchildren need to see prayer, worship, repentance, forgiveness, holiness, and faith lived out in front of them. They need more than religious words; they need a living example.
“As for me and my house” is not just a wall decoration. It is a declaration of leadership, responsibility, and surrender.
