Day 19: True Freedom

Writer's picture: JoniJoni

I am not MY OWN

and I am glad that I am not MY OWN

because when I was MY OWN

it was all about ME

and MY WAY

that always lead ME to the wrong place

because

I AM NOTHING

&

I can DO NOTHING

on

MY OWN.

"If the SON sets you FREE you are FREE indeed" (John 8:36)

Did you catch the WORD

after "If the"?

THE SON.

There is no ME in SON.

And oh what FREEDOM you experience

when you

surrender your

HEART, SOUL, & MIND

to

THE SON.

It is at that moment

that

you never have to do anything on

your OWN

as

"BE STILL & KNOW that GOD IS GOD" (Psalm 46:10)

becomes your reality,

so that you can not help yourself

but to get up

and RECEIVE all that is yours

IN JESUS,

because all that you want to do is to

FOLLOW HIM,

so that you become the person who you were created to be

IN CHRIST.

FREEDOM is found in DENYING yourself

so that

JESUS can have ALL of you.

Because

when you GIVE your LIFE to JESUS

it is JESUS who never stops

GIVING MORE to you

so that you are

LIVING THE ABUNDANT LIFE

even if you have nothing.

Because

JESUS IS EVERYTHING

as

HE GAVE HIS EVERYTHING

so we can HAVE HIS EVERYTHING.

And ALL we have to do is to

. "Be up and awake to what GOD is doing! GOD is putting the finishing touches on the salvation work he began when we first believed. We can’t afford to waste a minute, must not squander these precious daylight hours in frivolity and indulgence, in sleeping around and dissipation, in bickering and grabbing everything in sight. Get out of bed and get dressed!

Don’t loiter and linger, waiting until the very last minute.

Dress yourselves in CHRIST,

and be up and about!" (Romans 13)

CHRISTIANITY isn't a spectator sport.

GOD has equipped us with ALL we need to LIVE THE LIFE OF FREEDOM.

HE GAVE HIS SON.

HE GAVE HIS SPIRIT.

HE GAVE us FREE WILL

to LIVE every moment

as FREE.

Ready. Set. Go.

"If the SON sets you FREE you are FREE indeed"

Therefore,

"I SPEAK JESUS"

(listen to the song below) I am not MY OWN

and I am glad that I am not MY OWN

because when I was MY OWN

it was all about ME

and MY WAY

that always lead ME to the wrong place

because

I AM NOTHING

&

I can DO NOTHING

on

MY OWN.

your OWN

as

"BE STILL & KNOW that GOD IS GOD" (Psalm 46:10)

becomes your reality

as you can not help yourself

but to get up

and RECEIVE all that is yours

IN JESUS so that you want to FOLLOW HIM,

so that you become the person who you were created to be

IN CHRIST.
