Savoring the fruits of freedom

Women of Faith, the most important thing to understand is how much God loves you. It was only after this revelation that many of the chains holding me fell off. We sing songs all the time that declares God’s love for us, but how many of us are actually meditating on it? The word meditate means “to reflect.” Instead of us reflecting on all the bad things that people have done to us, we should reflect on God’s love for us. When we began reflecting on things that we should not be reflecting on, this gives the devil a foot hole to come in and take us hostage in our own minds. One of the biggest lies that the enemy will tell you is that God doesn’t love you. The most opportune time for the devil to do this is when you lose something or someone. The truth of the matter is, it’s the exact opposite; God loves you that much. In fact the bible declares that He loves you so much that He wants you to be free. 

“I have indeed seen the oppression of my people in Egypt. I have heard their groaning and have come down to set them free.” (Acts 7:34) 

Women of Faith, regardless of what your Egypt is, God can set you free. Most importantly, our freedom was so important to Him that He came down to set us free. If your Egypt is depression, low self-esteem, fear, or an addiction to something, God can deliver you if you want Him to. The people were groaning or lamenting as an indication they no longer wanted to be under this yoke. That’s what you must decide; that you wish to be free

~Prayer~

Father, we bless your holy name. We thank you for loving us so much that you sent your only begotten son to die on the cross for our sins. Father, we ask right now that you would open our eyes to see that by the precious blood of your son Jesus, we are set free. It is your will, father that we are free from everything that holds us bound. We receive our freedom right now from depression, suicidal thoughts, low self -esteem, lust, soul ties, fear, rejection and pride, in the precious name of Jesus. Amen.

I pray this poem will encourage you to embrace the freedom that God has given you. God gave all He had so that you could be free, so why don’t you give it all you have to embrace that gift of freedom that He has given to you. 

“If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.” (John 8:36, KJV)

~Embrace Your Freedom~

Woman of God, let your freedom ring,

From the highest mountains, let your freedom sing,

Oh woman of God thou art loosed,

Eating of the fruit that freedom produced,

Embracing all the riches that freedom gives,

By loving on a savior who surely lives,

Freedom is a wind that blows your tears,

And a mighty warrior defeating your fears,

Freedom is a light in a dark, dark room,

Freedom is hope in a situation of doom,

So go ahead woman of God and embrace your freedom,

Because you, my dear, are getting FIT for the kingdom!
