Feb. 24, 2007 - Heartlight's Verse of the Day
TODAY'S VERSE:
There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in
Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free
from the law of sin and death.
Romans 8:1-2
THOUGHT:
We are set free in Jesus from the most important bondage of all,
our fear of God's judgment. We are liberated from law, which
convicts and leads to death. We are set free by the Spirit to not
only fulfill what the Law intended, but also to be delivered from
the penalty of death that the Law required. In Jesus, and by the
power of his Spirit, we are set free to be God's children... for forever!
PRAYER:
Abba Father, thank you for your deliverance. I know you paid a
very high price to give it to me. Forgive me for not letting that
deliverance make my heart soar with confident joy. Lead me by the
power of your Spirit so that I can experience the freedom and joy
of your salvation -- not just at the end of my days, but in the
moments of today. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
