As Christians we know we have been set free. But are we truly walking in that freedom? Or are we allowing ourselves to be weighed down by heavy chains? True freedom is from God. Nothing on this earth can set you free, but the Lord. And when the Lord sets us free nothing can take that freedom from us. When we accept Christ in our lives, we no longer have to carry around our heavy chains. Sometimes, we can be carrying around burdens we don't even know we have. We need to ask God to reveal what chains and burdens we have been carrying around. Then ask him to help us let go of them, to give us strength and heal our hearts.
Prayer:
Lord we are coming to you today asking you to change our hearts and minds. Renew us so that we can walk in the freedom you have given us. Reveal to us the things we need to let go of and give us the strength to do it. Forgive us of our sins and help us to forgive ourselves and learn from our mistakes. Help us to surrender to you each day, in Jesus name we pray Amen.
Verse:
So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.
John 8:36 ESV
