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. Jesus declared the prophecy of Isaiah fulfilled immediately after reading the scripture recorded in Isaiah 61 to the Nazarenes (as recounted in Luke 4:18-21 of the Bible). In doing so, he revealed himself as the promised Messiah, the one designated to deliver and rescue his people from spiritual bondage and the oppression of sin. 

    Jesus came as the perfect, sinless Son of God to save humanity from the power of evil and bring us back to God. He took on a human body without any sin or flaw, like a pure and spotless sacrifice, to rescue us from being trapped by Satan. 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. Having been liberated from the slavery of sin, hold firmly to your newfound freedom in Christ. Resist becoming entangled once more in old habits, because genuine freedom comes through Him alone.

Let us pray:

    Merciful Savior, my God, and deliverer, I glorify you for your unmerited love and your redemption power. God and Father, I have sinned against You alone, and only You have the power to redeem me from the dominion of sin. I humbly ask that You help me stand firm in the freedom that Christ has given me. I give you thanks, O God, for sending your son Jesus Christ for the remission of our sins. I am grateful, O God, that we are offered a path to freedom from the power of sin. We are wholeheartedly thankful 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. 

Wishing you a blessed day. 💕🙏👐

    Thinking of free excite me. Being in the free air is something I cherish, as a gardener and one who loves the outdoors, many under the shades and feel the cool breeze romancing my body is so sweet, when the breeze stop, you can't wait for it to come back. However Being free from sin is far better since our eternity is tied to our freedom from sin. All chains that are holding us back in sin must be broken. No more chains should claim us. To God be the glory. 💪💪🙏🙏

That Little Fox

By

Good Morning Scripture reading: Song of Solomon 2:15 Worship song: Here's My Heart Lord   Meditation:      King Solomon warns us to catch the little foxes before they ruin the vines that have tender grapes. Little foxes are destructive to the vines because they attack the roots and stems, which are the lifeline of the plant. The little foxes are the seemingly insignificant sins that burrow into our lives that we refuse to shun. The little foxes are the seemingly minor issues that we disregard, the deceptions and lies that we accept, which appear harmless yet have the potential to wreak havoc on our spiritual well-being and relationship with God.       When we consistently disregard these habitual sins, they can lead to major sins, which will ultimately harm our character and hinder spiritual growth. A little spark kindled a fire; likewise, little willful sin defiles the conscience, so beware of the little foxes lurking in your vineyard (...

Do You Have Enough Fuel?

Good Morning Scripture reading: Matthew 25: 1-13 Mediation song: Give Me Oil in My Lamp   Meditation:      Have you ever experienced the frustration of your vehicle running out of fuel, leaving you stranded on the roadway? Has a power outage ever interrupted a crucial moment, only for you to discover the generator is also out of fuel? Anyone who experiences low resources understands what it means to be in a state of unpreparedness.       The bridesmaids waited to meet the bridegroom, but he was delayed longer than they anticipated. When the bridegroom arrived at midnight, the ten virgins woke to prepare their lamps, but the foolish five discovered they lacked enough oil for the long wait and missed the opportunity to go with the bridegroom. The five wise virgins rejoice because they have sufficient oil. The oil in our lamp represents the presence of the Holy Spirit within us, and we are the lamp in which the Holy Spirit dwells. The wise vi...

Playing With Fire

By

Good morning Scripture reading: 1 Corinthians 3:11-17 Worship song: Fires   Meditation:      Young children are fascinated by and naturally drawn to the mesmerizing glow that ignites from a lit match, and the glow that radiates from it captures their attention. They are unaware of the potential danger and or damage that can occur from its inappropriate misuse. A single spark can kindle a fire, and a fire has unlimited potential. Devoured by curiosity, children often ignore the stern warning not to touch or play with fire, but they only need to be burned once to learn not to get close to an open flame. Playing with fire can be fatal, for if you play with fire, you will certainly get burned.       No one can take fire in his bosom or walk on fire and not get burned. The proverb implies that one cannot indulge in sin or dangerous situations without suffering the consequences, unless divinely protected.Exposing oneself to the potential for s...

Preparing for a Race

By

Good morning Scripture reading: Hebrews 12:1-3 Worship song: I Will Run to You   Meditation:      Winning a world championship is considered one of the highest achievements in athletics. Every athlete who competes in a race desire to win a gold medal and also to become the world's fastest champion. Athletes competing against equally motivated and determined runners must push themselves beyond their normal limit to obtain victory. To have a fair chance of winning the race requires determination, commitment, vigorous training, sacrifices, endurance, patience, and discipline. As children of God, we are running in a noncompetitive race, and the challenge is to pursue what God wants for us rather than what we want for ourselves. We have the responsibility to press on to reach the end of the race and receive the heavenly reward.       Like the Apostle Paul, we should be able to declare we have fought a good fight, we have finished the race, an...
