Notes:

-Every environmental will perpetuate itself

-Every House is incubating something

-Zacharias & Elisabeth had a home ripe for a blessing (son)

-John the Baptist was going after changing homes, preparing the way for Jesus to affect EVERY home

-we need to change our hearts on the inside, not just outside

-We must start with changing our own house first!

-Goal: Get fire burning at home and KEEP it burning!!

-A healthy house has these things:

1. Unconditional love

2. Freedom with responsibility

3. Disagreeing without being disagreeable

4. Expectation to be powerful

5. Selflessly living for others while stating your own needs

6. Fun!

*What is your home ripe for? How will you cultivate it? How do you respond to disaster/blessing?

*What unhealthy ecosystem is in your home? What need does this meet for you? Repent. Ask God to exchange it for something!
