Galatians 5:1 – 1 It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.
Ironic isn’t it. The devil and evil spirits every day try to convince you that doing your own sinful thing is what makes you free.
As it turns out, freedom comes in the way of accepting Christ and having our sins forgiven.
Satan doesn’t want you to know the real slavery comes from being controlled by your sinful nature. If you don’t think you’re being controlled by these things try giving them up.
The bigger problem many times isn’t rather you can give them up, but the fact you don’t want to and they are contrary to what the Lord wants.
We need to change our “want to”. We need to read the Word of God and change it to “what it needs to be.”
We were made by the Lord, so don’t think that those things we are supposed to be are that alien to us. We just have to get close to God and Christ and then it sinks in. There’s your missing link. It isn’t some Neanderthal, but the Holy Spirit which is disconnected until we connect Him back in through Jesus.
Since we are all sinners, it doesn’t come naturally. It comes by allowing the Holy Spirit in to dwell.
Free yourself from your sinful nature and discover your new eternal destiny with a loving Savior and Lord in Jesus Christ.
