July · Day 204 of 365

Free to Love

Freedom in Christ

Scripture
Is not this the fast that I have chosen?… to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke?
Isaiah 58:6 (KJV)

Reflection

The bands that bound you are broken. Isaiah 58:6 sings it: "Is not this the fast that I…" The Lord delights in setting captives free. Whatever still seems to hold you, name it before Him today and ask for the freedom Christ has already won. He is faithful to finish what He has started.

Prayer

Holy Spirit, lead me into deeper freedom today — freedom to love, to forgive, to rejoice. Amen.

Thought for the Day

Where might I be condemning myself when Christ has not?
