Do not let sin control the way you live; do not give in to sinful desires. Do not let any part of your body become an instrument of evil to serve sin. Sin is no longer your master, for you no longer live under the requirements of the law. Instead, you live under the freedom of God’s grace. Romans 6:12-14 NLT
The cause of actual freedom is called God’s grace. Sin is no longer your master, for you no longer live under the requirements of the law. Instead, you live under the freedom of God’s grace. Constantly trying to do right was never the condition for our freedom. God never saved us by law. What the requirements of the law had to do with our salvation was to provide the way for sin to express itself so that we might see our actual nature and receive God’s grace through Jesus the Christ. God never withholds grace because of sin; in fact grace is the infinite flow of God’s perfect love. Today celebrate the freedom of God’s grace in your desires and your emotions. Do not let sin control the way you live; do not give in to sinful desires. Do not let any part of your body become an instrument of evil to serve sin. Grace has provided the freedom for all wounds to be healed so that you may enjoy the beauty of who you are through Jesus Christ. Rejoicing, peace and encouragement are yours know and forever when you live in the freedom of God’s grace. Enjoy! |
