Good Morning Beauties!
“Let me be clear, the Anointed One has set us free—not partially, but completely and wonderfully free! We must always cherish this truth and stubbornly refuse to go back into the bondage of our past.” Galatians 5:1 The Passion Translation
There you have it - truth! You have been set free, so the question is, “Will you accept it, or will you continue to live in the bondage of the enemy’s schemes?” Selah.
What is it that keeps you from dancing in the freedom Jesus died to give you? For me, the enemy held me in bondage to fear for so many years. What started in childhood continued into my adult years. The enemy used people and circumstances to terrorize me. One example is being held up at gunpoint. Looking down the barrel of the gun, I never thought I’d make it out alive. In those brief moments, I thought I was going to die. God saved me from that incident, but the residual affects stayed with me for years.
But Jesus! His love, safety and security have taken the place of the fear. The Bible tells us, “Perfect love casts out all fear.” (1 John 4:18) I can testify this statement is TRUE!
“For if you embrace the truth, it will release more freedom into your lives.” John 8:32 TPT
Are you ready to do the work with Jesus? You must first recognize those things that bind you. Write them in your journal. Ask God to reveal truth, heal those places, and set you free from the bondage that’s held you for so long. Everyone will have different things the enemy uses. It doesn’t have to be dramatic like being held up at gunpoint, but can be something like your parents having unrealistic expectations of you which caused perfectionism issues. Whatever keeps you from dancing in freedom must go.
Take the time to process with God. He’s right with you wanting to set you free! As you let go of those things that have kept you in chains, begin to celebrate the glorious freedom that’s yours.
Love and Blessings,
Kendra
