2 Corinthians 3:17
Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.

Do you know the beauty of Christianity? We have a living God. Our God is always around us. He came to live among us. He went a step further. He died, was resurrected and then ascended back up into Heaven. Before leaving, He promised to send us His Spirit to live in us. The Holy Spirit is what makes us free.

We no longer have to find a priest to sacrifice for us. We no longer have to go to a priest and have him enter the holy of holies in the temple. We have been set free. We have the Holy of Holies inside us. We are the temple.

As a child of God you have the freedom to seek Him out and speak to Him whenever and wherever you want. Nothing and no one can take that away from you, not even Satan himself. So what are you waiting for? Free up some time to spend with Him.

Lord, I am so thankful for the freedom to speak with You wherever and whenever I need. ~amen

Galatians 5:1
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.

God did the hard part willingly giving up His one and only Son to die for our sins. Christ did the hard part, being tortured, crucified, and resurrected for our sins. We have the easy part. We just stand firm and do not let ourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.

We all love getting things for free. Free coffee, free donuts, free oil change are some of my favorites. However, our freedom was not free. It cost dearly, but we didn’t pay for it. All we have to do is claim it.

So why is it so hard to stay free? Why do we let our sins enslave us over and over again? We make that choice to let “me and my needs” be more important than what Christ did for us.

Our freedom came at a price. Isn’t it about time we all started acting like it. Today I choose to stand firm and do not let ourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery. How about you?

Thank You Lord for paying the price for my freedom. ~amen
