You Shall Be Free Indeed

By

Good morning

Scripture reading: St. John 8:31-36

Worship song: I'm Free

 


Meditation:

    Isaiah, the messianic prophet, prophesied that the spirit of the Lord would be upon him who would be anointed to preach to the meek, proclaim freedom to the captives, and liberate those who are bound in prisons. The proclamation of the prophecy of Isaiah was declared fulfilled by Jesus Christ immediately after he read the scripture recorded in Isa. 61 to the Nazarenes (St. Luke 4:18-21). Jesus revealed to them that he was the Messiah, the one who came to deliver and rescue his people from bondage and the oppression of sin. Jesus came robed in flesh, not tarnished with sin or filled with blemish, but as the spotless lamb of God, holy and righteous, to redeem us from Satan's captivity. 

    Through Jesus Christ, all sinners are granted the same privilege to receive redemption and freedom from sin's dominion power. To be freed and have the peace of God, you need to look to Jesus Christ, confess, repent, and reconcile with him for the remission of your sin. When you are emancipated from the slavery of sin, stand fast, therefore, in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made you free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage, for if the Son, therefore, makes you free, you shall be free indeed.

 Let us pray:

    Merciful Savior, my God, and deliverer, I glorify you for your unmerited love and your redemption power. My God and my Father, only you have I sinned against, and only you can redeem me from the dominion power of sin, so I beseech you, Lord, to help me stand fast in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made me free. I give you thanks, O God, for sending your son Jesus Christ for the remission of our sins. Almighty God, I am grateful to you because through you we are granted the privilege of redemption from the dominion power of sin. Lord, I give you thanks for your grace, which is greater than our sins, and I am grateful to you because I am no longer bound as a slave to sin but bound to righteousness through Jesus Christ. Thank you, Lord God, for you have sacrificed yourself for the benefit of restoring the brokenhearted, delivering the captives, and giving freedom to all who seek to be loose from the dominion power of sin. Thank you, Almighty God, through Jesus Christ, for your grace, which is greater than our sins. Amen.

Have a blessed day. Keep safe. 👏💕🙏

    We are no longer a slave to sin. No one should willing subject themselves to sin thou it happens every day because of the temporary sweetness it affords while giving no consideration to it's consequences. Let us stop for a while and look back. We were sinking deep in sin, far from the shores of freedom but when we realize we cried out for help and was rescued. Thank God for attending to everyone cries. Here we are today singing the songs of freedom, no more chains holding us. Let us enjoy the freedom from sin. That is the atmosphere of peace. Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Let us seek to be free.

In Him Will I Trust

Good morning Scripture reading: Psalm 20 Worship song: I Will Say of The Lord   Meditation:      When the children of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir rose up against King Jehoshaphat of Judah, he became afraid and sought the Lord's help. He proclaimed a solemn fast throughout all of Judah, and all the people stood before God, including women and children, seeking his divine help against the great armies. Jehoshaphat urged the people of Judah and Jerusalem to believe in the Lord God and trust the word of the messenger, and they would prosper and triumph in the battle against the army that pursued them. He also appointed singers to worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness and to praise him for his mercy endures forever (2 Chronicles 20).       When you are facing giants, cry out to God, trust His plans, and worship Him with a sincere heart; praise Him in the beauty of holiness. Do not be like those who trust in earthly rulers, human strength...

Purification of The Heart

By

Good morning Scripture: St. Matthew 15:8-20 Worship song: Create in Me A Clean Heart   Meditation:      The heart symbolizes the center or core of our being from which we operate. It is like the driving force behind our actions. It can be referred to as a person's character or the place within a person where feelings or emotions are generated. The heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked. Jeremiah, the prophet, says, who can know it? (Jeremiah 17:9). Only God can. He searches the heart, tries it, and rewards every man according to his ways and the fruit it produces. The heart is like a factory where products are produced and exported.       Whatever evil the heart produces, it will be shipped throughout the rest of our body, exit through our mouth, and defile us. Among the things that the heart produces are evil thoughts, wickedness, stealing, envy, striving, covetousness, and the like. A person is made or broken by wha...

Miracle Working God

Good morning Blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in him. (Jeremiah 17:7). Hymn: My Hope is Built on Nothing Less   Testimony:      When God has you covered, when his hands of mercy and grace are extended, and when your faith is stronger than your situation, you can rejoice and glorify the King of kings. My faith and trust in God are further heightened, and my hope has increased after hearing a victory testimony from a relative who doctors thought had no chance of survival after his diagnosis. I can truly say my God is good, O, and he is still working miracles. A recent medical examination determined that there was no trace of cancer in his body. Through prayer, praise, faith, trusting God, a strict diet plan, follow-up visits to the physician, and nurture and care by his loving wife, who stood by him, pampering, comforting, and nursing him, he is now rejoicing and giving God thanks. Look what the Lord has done.     ...
