“... and to preach to prisoners, ‘You are set free!’...”
Freeze Tag is one of my favorite schoolyard games. Maybe you've played it too, and you can recall that one person is designated as "it," and he or she has the power to "freeze" anyone he or she touches—meaning that if you are tagged, you must remain still. The "tagger" chases and freezes as many people as possible, while individuals who are free are tagging those who are frozen to "un-freeze" them. It's a great game!
Similar to Freeze Tag, we who carry the Spirit of the Lord have the ability to set people free by the power of the Holy Spirit and "un-freeze" them.
You don't have to look far to see people trapped in bondage. Addiction, depression, unforgiveness, negativity, fear, sickness, and insecurity have frozen countless individuals. Their past imprisons them, and they are held captive by self-diminishing thoughts and disappointments. These individuals are sadly missing out on the freedom available to them through Jesus, and their future is bleak.
They need to know that there is so much more that God has to offer them in this life! He sent His Son to pay the penalty for our sins so we can live in relationship with Him—without condemnation and shame. God loves us unconditionally, and there is nothing we can do to cause Him to love us more, and there is nothing we can do to cause Him to love us less. We are enough, and we can break free from what's holding us back when we surrender our will, accept the free gift of grace, and choose to live God's Way.
As Believers, we are anointed to share this message of freedom that has the power to break chains! It's an extraordinary privilege not only to be able to live in freedom but to have the ability to un-freeze people from where they are and introduce them to the freedom that God offers. This doesn't happen by our own means, but by the power of the Holy Spirit working through us.
We can be the difference-makers! We're not responsible for the miracle, but we can create opportunities for the Holy Spirit to move. When we speak truth and life, we can set people free!
