God speaks today Saturday | August 2, 2025
Be not afraid of their faces: for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the LORD.
(Jeremiah 1:8)Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
(2 Corinthians 3:17) Freedom in Christ
True freedom comes from having a heart filled with God. Christ gave us spiritual freedom when he freed us from the power of darkness and moved us into his kingdom. This freedom is total, but it is not freedom to sin and do whatever we want. It is the freedom to avoid sin and to reject it energetically, and to be servants of justice. Trusting in Christ as Lord and Savior does not give us a license to sin. Freedom in Christ is beautiful and liberating, freeing us from the eagerness of trying to please God with our abilities and reminding us that it is He who does all the work. Salvation is a twofold gift: freedom from the wages of sin and freedom from the power of sin.
