The Contingency of Freedom!
“I have gained perfect freedom by following your teachings.” Psalm 119:45
A young man was accused of murder. He was about to sentenced to death. His lawyer refused to give up on him. The judge said that he had been guilty of murder, but his client can only be set free if there are truth evident that he did not commit the crime. On the day of judgment, the lawyer provided the truth to the jury. They were told that he was guilty until proven innocent with all evident.
I declare now, that whatever accusation brought against you by your accuser, labeling you with a false identity, sooner not later you will be prove innocent in Jesus name.
Likewise, the contingency of freedom in the evil world is also an essential factor in knowing the truth. When we know the truth, it will not be more comfortable for the devil to deceive us and drag us to hell. The devil knows what can set you and me free, but he does not want us to believe it. Many people are on the right path to salvation, but they enslave themselves by believing the lies of the devil and his followers. Galatians 5:1says, “It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not be encumbered once more by a yoke of slavery.”
Many lives in the church, but they do not know the truth and walk by Christ teaching and his promises. They know Jesus, but they do not have Jesus in their hearts and as their savior. They forgot that ” If the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.” John 8:36. They carry the Bible every Sunday, but they did not know what is, written according to God’s plan of salvation.
They forgot that “even Christ did not please Himself, but as it is written…” Romans 15:3a. And through what is written, Jesus said: “Away from Me, Satan!” “For it is written: ’Worship the Lord your God and serve Him only.” Matthew 4:10.
Satan left Jesus alone after Jesus told him the truth. Same way if you can hold on to the truth in Christ Jesus, follow his teaching and promises; abide the word of God and live by faith. You will be set free from sin and death. Jesus has provided the true evident with his blood. If you hold on to Jesus lifestyle, you will be free from all kind of evil and have access to the throne of grace. In John 14:6, Jesus said, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
Prayer:
1. Thank you, Jesus, for you are my shepherd. You know me better than anyone else in the world.
2. In the name of Jesus, Holy Spirit come and help me to obey the teaching of our Lord Jesus Christ.
3. In the name of Jesus, I am called by his blood to come against every accuser, labeling me with a false identity by the blood of Jesus.
