Your Grave

Have you walked out of your grave? Seriously. With our God’s saving power pulsing through your veins, you are free. Free. No longer bound by the death of this world. Death from words has no power over you. Deadly situations will no longer paralyze you. Death from fear of the unknown no longer consumes you. The absence or death of joy, filling yourself instead with insecurity, can no longer claim you. You’ll know when you have walked out of your grave because you’ll feel the freedom God so desperately wants to give you. When God saves your soul, first and foremost, you are headed to heaven. When you die, you no longer worry where you will forever remain. However, there is a second part.

God longs for you to be saved from this world here on earth as well. Saved from the death all around you. Saved from deathly words swallowing you up. Saved from deadly situations paralyzing you. Saved from fear of the unknown consuming you. Saved from joyless living, from aligning yourself with insecurity and unloving thoughts. Jesus wants to redeem your life on earth too. He wants you to walk around completely loved, completely valued, and completely prized. Why? Because you are his beloved. He has saved you not only from having to spend eternity away from him, but he has also saved you in this world. You are victorious. You are free. Together with God, you are victorious over anything this world throws at you. Have you walked out of your grave?

Trust and Focus: How can you let go of your old self and walk into the freedom of God today? Which unhealthy habits, addictions, or attitudes will you give to him? God can save you, but it is your choice. Choose his freedom today and trust him for healing.
