FREEDOM

2 CORINTHIANS 3:17

"For the Lord is the Spirit, and wherever the Spirit of the Lord is, there is FREEDOM!"

To anyone who has been in prison or detained lawfully or unlawfully listen to this! To anyone who has been enslaved or indentured pay attention to this. To anyone who feels the weight of discrimination or bias or hatred, listen to this. If you are oppressed or downtrodden and you can not see the light of day, pay attention. You can be liberated right now. You can be emancipated right now. You can be released from your bondage right now. You can have FREEDOM, right now!

What do we need to have freedom right now? We need the Spirit of the Lord. We need to have opened the door to our heart and invited Jesus Christ to come in and dwell with us. The Lord will bring with Him the Holy Spirit which will also dwell within our heart. We worship the Lord in Spirit and in truth. If the Lord is in our heart and the Spirit is in our heart then the truth is that wherever the Spirit of the Lord is there is FREEDOM. So if you are John McCain in a prison camp for 5 and 1/2 years, you can still depend on God to give you His Spirit and His Freedom. If you were a slave in the early south in America, you could still have spiritual freedom.

All things spiritual are done in the heart and the mind. In fact freedom is a state of mind. We are never free from death or destruction in this life. We need the Spirit of God and His Salvation to give us eternal life, free from this world. Everyone born into this world is a slave to it and the only way to achieve freedom is to gravitate to wherever the Spirit of the Lord is. Invite the Holy Spirit and Jesus Christ to Save you and set you free. The you will be free at last, free at last, thank God All mighty we are free at last!
