No Longer a Slave…

Apple1phone 2448

I am no longer a slave to sin.  I am a child of God.

I am no longer a slave to what others think.  I am a child of God.

I am no long a slave to fear.  I am a child of God.

I am no longer a slave to lies.  I am a child of God.

I am no longer a slave disappointment.  I am a child of God.

I am no longer a slave to comparison.  I am a child of God.

I am no longer a slave to bitterness.  I am a child of God.

I am no longer a slave…I am a child of God.

We shackle ourselves to too many things.  We claim it is our “personality”.  We claim it is “hereditary”.  We claim it is “who I am”.  We claim it is “where we are supposed to be”.

We are prisoners of our own choosing.  Shackled and yet, holding the key of freedom in our hands.

Unlock the chains.  Let them fall.

Whatever it is that weighs you down.  Release it.

Stop holding onto things – to people – to dreams that leave you empty.

Begin to believe who you are in Christ.

You are God’s:

Possession

Child

Workmanship

Friend

Chosen

Witness

Beloved

Jewels

You have been:

Set free

Forgiven

Adopted

You are:

Complete in Him

Loved eternally

Light in the darkness

His sheep

Secure

Healed

Sheltered

Hidden

You have:

All things in Christ

A living hope

An anchor for your soul

Authority

Boldness and access

Peace

Mind of Chirst

Power

You can:

Do all things through Christ

Find mercy and grace

Come boldly to the throne

Quench the fiery darts

Declare liberty to captives

Pray always and everywhere

 

You are a child of God.

    Thank you for sharing. I so often shackle myself. Not thinking or even remembering about the key. I need to release the chains that bind and remember who I am in Christ.

    Amen and Amen.

    As a child of God we need to unlock the chain that is wrapped around our hearts. The chains that keep us from loving and trusting again. As a child of God we need to unlock the shackles from around our ankles that bind us in fear and keep us from going where God wants to send us. As a child of God we need to unlock the chains that tie our arms and hands to our sides with lack of empathy and compassion and keep us from being the hands of Christ in someone’s life.

    I AM A CHILD OF GOD!!
