Freedom - Part 2

Now my debt is paid
It is paid in full
By the precious blood
That my Jesus spilled.

Now the curse of sin
Has no hold on me
Whom the Son sets free
Oh is free indeed!

As we sang this song in church Easter morning, I felt a fresh touch from God. The power and presence of God was so strong in that place! And Pastor Eric shared a powerful sermon, never mind that it was the 3rd one that morning!

I LOVE how God shows up! He doesn't have to come, but He always does. May my heart be open to see Him.

You can listen to this song here.

Freedom...

...is walking in confidence in who I am in Christ, not living in past failures and believing I've been forgiven.

Yesterday morning this verse was highlighted to me:

"So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed." John 8:36

As I was listening for the umpteenth time to the prophetic word given to me at the beginning of the year, here was this verse again!

Then last night at Missional Communities we were talking about what the blood of Jesus does for us. The leader was giving out references of verses for us to read. I offered to read this one, not knowing what it was. Revelations 1:5 "To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood."

                                                            *********************

I love the phrase of this song, "You don't have to come, but you always do..."

This week had some very difficult things, not the least of which was the funeral of a 10-year-old boy. But even in that, God was there.


I choose today to walk in the life and freedom He has given me!
