042 - Freedom By Faith In God's Word

In this episode I share how God's Word sets you free and without faith in His word you will not be truly free. "‭. . . Jesus said to those Jews who believed Him, 'If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free'" (John 8:31-32, NKJV‬). Through His Word you learn of your right standing with God and this sets you free. For example, in Luke 13, beginning at verse 10, Jesus is teaching in the synagogue on the Sabbath and there is a woman who was all bent over and couldn't rise up. She had been this way for 18 years! Jesus heals her and the ruler of the synagogue condemns Him for healing on the Sabbath. "The Lord then answered him and said, 'Hypocrite! Does not each one of you on the Sabbath loose his ox or donkey from the stall, and lead it away to water it? So ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan has bound—think of it—for eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the Sabbath?'" (Luke 13:15-16, NKJV‬). Jesus pointed out that she had a right to be healed because of her "being a daughter of Abraham." We have the same right! "For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ . . . And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise" (Galatians 3:27, 29, NKJV‬). We, as believers in Christ receive all the Spiritual blessings and rights accredited to the offspring of Abraham. And a profound revelation of Christ can make this a reality for us. Like this woman, you have a right as a Christian to be healed! In Genesis we're told about how Satan deceived man and brought fear and sin into the world. Jesus came to defeat the works of Satan, and to bring us out of his dominion. We have the Truth and Love of God found in His Word to overcome fear and sin in our lives. In this message I give examples of how knowing who you are in Christ will manifest this freedom. Selah!
