Yesterday, Bishop Alexis A. Thomas preached, "It's My Time to Live Free!" He used Galatians 5:1-4 as his reference scriptures.
If you are "Born Again", Heaven is already yours! Our enemy knows that there is nothing he can do to change our eternal destination. But he wants us to believe that our life on earth has to be "Hell" and he does everything he can do to make our lives miserable. We can be encouraged in spite of this, because Jesus said, "I came to give life with joy and abundance." John 10:10 (Voice)
Jesus said, “You are truly my disciples if you remain faithful to my teachings. And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”John 8:31-32 (New Living Translation) This verse is basically saying, the truth you know will set you free! It becomes our responsibility to study, memorize, and meditate on God's Word. The Apostle Paul encouraged Timothy to be, "one who applies the true teaching in the right way." 2 Timothy 2:15 (Easy-to-Read Version)
As we fill our lives with God's Truths we will begin to live free in every area! Jesus paid the price for our freedom, but we have to walk in that freedom!
Would you like to live emotionally free? "Love your enemies! Pray for those who persecute you!" Matthew 5:44 (The Living Bible)
Would you like to live financially free? "Don’t hold back—give freely, and you’ll have plenty poured back into your lap—a good measure, pressed down, shaken together, brimming over. You’ll receive in the same measure you give." Luke 6:38 (Voice)
Would you like to live mentally free? "You will keep the peace, a perfect peace, for all who trust in You, for those who dedicate their hearts and minds to You." Isaiah 26:3 (Voice)
Would you like to live physically free? "Don’t assume that you know it all. Run to God! Run from evil! Your body will glow with health, your very bones will vibrate with life!" Proverbs 3:7-8 (Message)
Love and prayers, Cynthia
