Bible Verse of The Day – 4-8-14

(John 8:36 NKJV)  “Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed.

I had a dream last night.

People were being held captive on a boat. The boat and all the people on it were found.

When the boat pulled up to port and they were all walking off it, oh they were so happy! But, I noticed that they were walking funny. They were taking little baby steps.

So I said to the man next to me, “why do they walk like that”? He replied to me, “Because they were in shackles for so long they don’t know how to walk any different.”

You see, the longer we stay in chains the harder it is to break free!

How many of us today has God set free, but yet we still walk as if we have our shackles on? Are we worrying or fearful about what people may think or say about us?

How many of us today can say “God, you have set me free, let’s walk together with a big stride and cover the ground you have for me?”.

We have been set free! There are no more shackles on us. We don’t have to remain as we were. Change needs to come and we need to stop walking like we are still in captivity. Amen!

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-10-13

Ephesians 2 (NKJV) And you He made alive, who were dead in trespasses and sins…

We were all dead in our sins. Every single one of us. And sadly, very few of us even knew we were dead.

It is our sin that separates us from God. It is the great canyon that stands between us and the Father. This canyon is so vast that the human eye cannot see across it.

There is no bridge that can be built across this canyon, except for one. That one bridge cannot be built by human hands or human engineering. It is a bridge created in the spirit realm. That bridge is created across the shoulders of Immanuel, God with us, Jesus Christ.

It is held together with the large nails that were driven into His wrists and feet. And it is painted in His blood, the precious blood that washes our sins away.

And yet, even though we were dead, we have been made alive! Amen!!

Jesus paid the price for our sin… our terrible sin, and offers us redemption through His brutal death and beautiful resurrection.

This, the ultimate sacrifice, is the one thing that can make us alive and put our sin so far from us that it cannot be found or seen again.

Thank Him today for this incredible bridge that was built in a way that no man and no demon can destroy it.

Thank Him and give Him glory and honor.

Bible Verse of The Day – 3-26-12

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

Jesus died to set us free… nothing more and nothing less.

He died to set us free from sin. Sin can ensnare us and cause spiritual death. Sin separates us from God and causes a great division between us and Him.

With sin, there will come consequences. Sometimes these consequences can be small and other times they can be far-reaching, affecting us and those around us for years to come.

This is the very reason we need to make our choices wisely and carefully in everything we do.

Jesus gives us freedom to choose right from wrong. Let’s choose very carefully and make wise choices and enjoy the freedom that He died to give us!
