No More Bondage-Be Free!

John 8:36

         What does it mean to be free? or what does it mean for you to say I have no more bondage, I am free? For some, it means that they are not confined to a physical space and bound by chains, or they are not imprisoned. However, many persons are in bondage in their minds. Many persons are held in bondage by fears, anxieties, guilt, failures, regrets, their past, and disappointments just to mention a few.

        God did not intend for us to remain in bondage, that is why he sent Jesus Christ so that whatever used to hold us back can no longer have that power over us. 2 Corinthians 3:17 declares “Now the Lord the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom”. God wants us to be free. He wants us to have a free conscience, mind, spirit, and life. Many times, fear prevented persons from going after their goals, it stopped them from becoming who God wanted them to be, and so, some people never get the chance to walk into their purpose.

         There are people who have lived with guilt for years, and they do not think that God can heal them in that area. There are people who live with past regrets and failure for years, and it has stopped them from seeking out and finding their true potential. Living in bondage was never the plan of God for your life, but somehow you allow it to hold you back?  

          True freedom comes from God, when you allow him to correct the mistakes that you have made. Give your past to Jesus and allow Him to hold your future in His hands. Give Him all your disappointments, hurts, sadness, sorrows, and your fears. Declare over yourself that you are free from whatever was holding you back. Accept God’s freedom today.
