"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." -Galatians 5:1 (NIV)
The time around Thanksgiving and Christmas allows us to reflect on our blessings. One of our blessings is found in our freedom. We may think of our freedom as something protected by laws or government, but our freedom actually comes through a higher power!
The death and resurrection of Jesus allows us to have our greatest freedom - forgiveness of our sin and a relationship with God! When we accept Jesus as our Savior, our redemption is guaranteed by God. Our sin is washed away and we become new beings. We are free from the sin that binds us. We are given the strength to stand firm in God's Word and power. Once we have been freed, we should be thankful for new beginnings and strength to stand up for ourselves and for our God!
Accept salvation and be freed from sin, then be thankful!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for saving me from sin and help me to stand in Your strength and power. Through Jesus, my Redeemer, I pray, amen.
