The Mended Rib: A 27-Day Devotional for Men Battling Lust and Infidelityნიმუში

You Are Free!

Freedom is not just a distant hope; it is your present reality in Christ. If you belong to Him, you are already free from the power of sin and death. Lust, addiction, and guilt no longer hold authority over you because Jesus has set you free. Living in this freedom means walking daily in the victory Christ has already secured. This doesn’t mean you won’t face temptation, but it does mean that sin no longer controls you. When you walk in the freedom of Christ, you rely on His strength and live from a place of victory, not defeat.

I am overwhelmed with joy knowing God’s forgiveness and freedom. What amazes me is that I didn’t need to wait until I was completely free from my struggles to claim that freedom. The Bible says we walk by faith, not by sight. Even when I couldn’t see it, even when my confidence wavered, I had to cling to the desire for freedom. The moment I stopped trying to free myself and trusted God’s plan, everything changed. Walking in freedom doesn’t mean the battle is over—it means you’re equipped for it. The enemy targets what he fears most, and the devil hates marriage and family because of what they represent.

Here’s the truth: You have the victory. You are empowered with God’s strength to stand firm against every attack. By walking in the freedom Christ has given you, you’re not just protecting yourself—you’re breaking generational chains and leaving a legacy of freedom and healing for your family.

You are free in Christ. Now live in that freedom.

Challenge

Today, celebrate the freedom you have in Christ. Reflect on how far God has brought you and thank Him for the victory He has given you. Live today with the confidence that you are free indeed.

Prayer

Jesus, thank You for setting me free. Help me to walk in that freedom every day, relying on Your strength. Remind me that sin no longer has control over me, because I belong to You. Amen.
