July Devotional


Are you free? Are you truly free? Or do you still struggle with bondage in your life?

July is the month when America pauses from its busyness to celebrate freedom! We celebrate with parades and fireworks ... with picnics and brass bands ... with sparklers and patriot hymns. As a Christians ... how do we celebrate our freedom?!

When the young American colonies were trying to break free from England, they had to deal with the tyrant, King George. King George was relentlessly diligent in attempting to keep America in financial, religious and political bondage under his rule and reign. The colonial soldiers were forced to fight a bloody battle and at last sign the glorious Declaration of Independence!

There is a tyrant whose sole purpose is to keep you in bondage to sin and to slavery. His name? Not King George but satan. Satan is relentless in his attempt to convince the children of God that they are not free but that that are locked up by his chains of sin and depression. The good news is that the blood has already been shed in your battle for independence - Jesus shed His blood so that you could live a life of freedom and liberty! Your declaration of independence? The Word of God! It is His truth that will set you free as a citizen of Christ's Kingdom on earth.

Now ... let the celebration begin!! How will you celebrate your freedom from that whipped dog, satan?! By singing and dancing ... with rejoicing and praise! It's time to let the world know that he Whom the Son sets free is free indeed!

- Carol
