Choose Freedom Today!

CALLED FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS



It is good to take a look at ourselves and search our hearts. Hebrews talks of the sin that so easily gets in our way and we need to be on our guard against it. We need to remove these things from our lives and can only do so by the grace of God. That said, some effort on our part needs to take place so that there is life changing behavior and a hundred and eighty degree turn, away from sin. What is the sin that so easily besets you? Identify it? Come to a decision to eradicate it from your life! You can only do this by letting the cross do it's work. You need to take up your cross and follow Him. Paul said, "I die daily" and you too need to die daily to sin in your life. Come closer to Jesus today, cry out to Him and He will help you find freedom from the sin that has ensnared you. Choose life today and find victory in the name of Jesus over all power of the enemy. He alone will give you grace to help in time of need. Come now to Him and bring it to the foot of the cross and allow the blood of Jesus to be applied to your life. It washes whiter than snow and will cleanse you from all unrighteousness. Be set free today and walk in victory for He paid the price in full for your freedom.

1Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,

2Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

3For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.

4Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin.

5And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him:

6For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.Hebrews 12:1-6
