We Are FREE IN Christ!

The best defense against the devil is to be so God-centered that you give no place to Satan.

Sometimes is seems people who are very sensitive to the devil’s presence usually are so at the expense of being sensitive to the Lord’s presence.

David said, “If I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there” (Ps. 139:8).

*Anytime Satan’s oppression is present, God’s presence is there too (Heb. 13:5).

It’s just a matter of where our focus is.

***Focusing on the devil is a trick of the devil. Choose to focus on God.

The serpent didn’t come to Eve in the garden threatening to bite her if she didn’t eat of the forbidden fruit. Instead, he came with deception, presenting himself as being concerned for her welfare. Satan’s greatest weapon is deceit.

We were all guilty (Rom. 3:23) and condemned to death (Rom. 6:23), yet Jesus suffered our punishment so that we may go free (2 Cor. 5:21). Just as Barabbas didn’t ask for this substitution, so “God commended his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” (Rom. 5:8).

In the same way that Jesus died unto sin once, and death no longer has dominion over Him, the person who recognizes their death with Christ unto sin, will not allow sin to rule over him anymore.

Any Christian who is struggling with sin has not recognized that they are dead unto sin.

God paid a great price for it. Jesus paid with His blood.

2 Corinthians 4:17-18  For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory, while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. for the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal.

**We must preach the Word, not experiences.
*Experiences are only useful to illustrate that God’s Word is true.

Thank You Lord for Your Word, which is 100% absolute truth.  Help me to live out Your Truths and Promises in Your Holy Spirit Written Word in Scriptures. “FREEDOM” Amen
