Stand in Freedom

 Job 31-32; Galatians 5-6 

“It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery…You, my brothers, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the sinful nature; rather, serve one another in love.”

Galatians 5:1, 13

The freedom we have received from Christ and through Christ, is not just our testimony, it is our call. We stand firm in freedom by resisting temptation and sin. In Christ, we have been delivered from the power of sin, so we no longer have to submit to its yoke and enslavement. However, we live free by not only remembering Christ’s saving Gospel, but by living in its reality every day. We live free by serving one another in love and not just serving ourselves. We live free by standing firm against sin by the resurrection power of the Holy Spirit.

Are we living free?

Are we standing firm in Christ?

Are we living the gospel of freedom in Christ?

“Lord Jesus, thank you for releasing me from sin’s power and bondage and for filling me with your Spirit’s freeing power to serve you and others this day, for your glory.”
