You need Jesus to be free [June 17,2022 ]
You need Jesus to be free
Isaiah 61:1
The spirit of the Lord is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; He hath sent me to bind up the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound
The verse above can be said to be the job description of the Prophet Isaiah. Included in the list is:
Proclaiming liberty to captives and opening of prison to them that are bound.
This implies that the Lord can deliver and set free those who are under bondage. We need the Lord to set us free.
Isaiah 43:1 says
But thus saith the Lord that created thee, Oh Jacob, and He that formed thee, Oh Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee….
The Lord has already redeemed us through the death and resurrection of Jesus. All we need to do is to accept the gift of salvation and we would be free.
John 8:36
If the son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed
Jesus is the “Son” mentioned in the verse above and He is the only one that can set us free.
John 14:6 says
Jesus saith unto Him, I am the way, the truth and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
The only way to receive our freedom is through Christ
God be with you
How can I apply the word to my life?
1. Make sure you are born again and living for Christ.
