Yom Chamishi, Nisan 25, 6003 – April 12, 2018
We Are Free
When thinking of all we have to be thankful for to our Farther, it can be difficult to come up with one thing to say thank you about specifically. I can get a little overwhelmed just thinking about it. I was thinking recently about the nature of things in the U.S. It is hard to reconcile the way people are treated at times with the idea that we are truly free. Yet, scriptures suggest that we are free.
John 8:35 And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth ever.
36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.
Freedom is not about what men might think or say about control. Freedom is inward, which then comes outward. Freedom is the freedom from the bondage of sin on the inside, which comes outside. Sin is always trying to grab us. But our Messiah sets us free.
John 8:34 Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.
35 And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth ever.
36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.
Once we are free on the inside, that comes out of our mouth. That creates the possibility for true freedom, even on the outside.
Today, let’s be thankful for our freedom.
Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are our King. Praise the name YAH! Let Your kingdom come into the hearts of mankind throughout the earth. Let Your will be done here, just as it is in heaven. Send us today Your overwhelming provision. Forgive us our trespasses and transgressions, and help us all to forgive those that have trespassed or transgressed against us. Wipe away the thoughts of evil done to us or by us. In their place let there be only thoughts and memories of You. Deliver us from the evil around us and in us. Restore Your people, Father. Crush the darkness. Restore unto Your people thousands of thousands of all the good that has been eaten or taken or held back in any way, and the more besides. Send in quickly the $424,523,962.53 that we might care for Your people. We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). We ask all these things of You, Father, in Your name YAH. We ask all these things in the name YAH Yeshuah. Amen.
