You Can Be Free!
You Can Be Free!
ByThe Israelites spent many years in bondage. Even when they became free, they still had the “bondage” mentality.
They had become used to the slave mind-set. They were conditioned to the limitations that were placed on them as a result of the time they spent in bondage – So much to the point that once they were freed, they didn’t realize the enormous weight that had been lifted off them. They didn’t know the true freedom that they had.
Like the Israelites, too many of us are living in a spiritual bondage. When God delivers us from our past, oftentimes we want to dwell on what used to be.
Those chains that have held you captive for years have placed limitations on the life God has for you. But you must believe that when God delivers you from your past you must relinquish the pastime mint-set.
Don’t walk around with the chains of yesterday on. No, realize that you have been freed from your past. Today is a new day. God is constantly doing new things in your life and bringing about change for you. It’s up to you to let go of the past and step into what God has for you.
You can be free. Those people who have done you wrong, God wants you to forgive them and move on. Those addictions that have held you back, know that you can overcome them. That setback that has kept you from reaching your full potential may be the one thing that sets you forward in life!
I love how the scripture says “Where the spirit of the Lord is there is liberty.” Continue to put the Lord first in everything you do. When you do so, I believe that God will deliver you into a higher dimension as you charge forth on your journey of life!

Great post. We are only as free as our mind. Once we tap into our subconscious we can live freely, without doubt and with only present moment action, without any doubt.
You make a good point here Jarrod. It’s the mentality that gets you, not the circumstance you are in. Thanks for the pleasant reminder.
