Sometimes the enemy isn't operating in your city - sometimes the enemy is operating in your circle. Jesus said He came to bring a sword, not peace. What does this mean for your family relationships when you choose to follow Him wholeheartedly? The gospel doesn't divide because it's broken - it divides because it exposes what's broken in us.

If God notices every sparrow that falls and numbers every hair on your head, why do we struggle to trust Him with our daily challenges? What fear have you come into agreement with that keeps you from living out your calling?

Jesus prepared his disciples for the harsh realities of kingdom mission, warning them they would face opposition like sheep among wolves. He instructed them to be shrewd as serpents yet harmless as doves, combining wisdom with innocence. When facing trials, God would provide the right words through His Spirit. Jesus warned that even families might turn against them, as the kingdom exposes divided loyalties.
