Finding Freedom

DAY 1 OF 7

The Platform to Freedom

We can have mistaken ideas about what it means to have faith in God.

It is a misconception to think that faith and religion involve following obscure laws and codes of behaviour. Dressing up the externals of your life to try to make God or your grandparent happy will not result in the freedom for your life that God promises. 

The book of Romans tells us that following rules and observances (eating and drinking) are not what makes us a Christian. It is not a matter of ‘don’t do that, say that, eat that, drink that or wear that’ … of keeping enough rules and observances to gain love and acceptance by God.

Rather, the key to real faith is acknowledging, “Jesus, you’re God. Let your Spirit live within me and change me from the inside out.” Then things begin to change. Specific changes in us, the Bible promises, will be that we start to experience:

  • Righteousness
  • Peace
  • Joy

Those three things are not random occurrences as we follow God in faith. They are vital evidence of a faith-filled life, and they are in effect the exact opposite of the anxiety, shame and despair/depression experienced by many people.

God assures us that the work of his Spirit in your heart will be:

  • Righteousness = Freedom from shame
  • Peace = Freedom from anxiety
  • Joy = Freedom from despair 

That is why we need the Holy Spirit in our lives – to be who God wants us to be and to live how God wants us to live! 

Experience breakthrough and take steps toward freedom today.
