Romans 6:22
But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the benefit you reap leads to holiness, and the result is eternal life.

George Washington said, “Liberty, when it degrades into sin, gives birth to confusion, and often ends in tyranny.” Today is a special day that Americans spend commemorating being set free from a terrible tyranny. And those Americans who fought for freedom knew that in order to stay free, our nation had to be founded on the truth of God’s infallible Word which never changes.

Ephesians 3:12
In him and through faith in him we may approach God with freedom and confidence.

No one wants to be pulled over by a police officer. But what if you were pulled over by someone who knew you and liked you? That would change everything. In fact, you would probably feel freer and more confident. And that’s exactly how you can come to God, with freedom and confidence. It doesn’t mean God will give you everything you want, but He will listen as you approach Him in faith.

Galatians 5:13
You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in love.

Aren’t you so thankful you’ve been freed from the bondage of sin? In a way, you were in a prison and Jesus set you free. But He didn’t free you so that you would stay in the prison. He freed you to share with others how you got out. And you do that by serving others. In fact, God says, you are now free to love as much as you want, to have as much joy as you want, and to use that amazing freedom for good.

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

Snap your fingers. That’s how fast it took you to go from death to life, to become a new creation in Christ. And when that happens, you’re set free from the constant desire to sin and now, God gives you His Spirit which provides the power to say NO. No to sin, to ungodliness, and a BIG NO to being like the world. And God’s Spirit won’t lead you back to death and bondage, He can only lead you towards freedom and life.

1 Peter 2:9
“But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of Him who called you out of darkness and into His wonderful light.”

Do you have a tape in your mind of all the negative things people have said to you? If so, what do you do when that happens? Well, you should run. Run to God’s Word and look for the truth about what He says about you. And what you’ll find is pretty unbelievable. But the more you can believe it, the taller you’ll stand and the lighter you’ll be.

Ecclesiastes 2:13
“I saw that wisdom is better than folly, just as light is better than darkness.”

When you go into a dark room, it’s a little scary. And since you can’t really see, you have to feel which way to go. But when you turn on the light, you can clearly see which way is the right way. And it’s the same when you compare wisdom with folly. Living foolishly is like living in the darkness letting your feelings guide you, but when you seek wisdom from God, it’s like a light turns on and you can clearly see which way to go.
