THE AGENDA OF THE SPIRIT
By: Samuel Rodriguez

We live in a world where people are bound—bound by sin, pornography, sexual immorality, addiction, alcoholism, depression, loneliness, dismay, anxiety, fear, confusion, the past, failure, and defeat. Do you know why so much bondage exists?
 
The enemy understands that the most dangerous human on the planet is not the one with riches, guns, armies, or fame. The most powerful human on the planet is a person set free by the blood of the Lamb. Why?

Because it was a free man who approached Pharaoh in Egypt and said, “Let my people go.” It was a free man who stepped into the Promised Land and declared “As for me and my house, we shall serve the Lord.” It was a free man who stared down a giant called Goliath and said, “You come against me with a sword, a spear and a javelin, but I come against you in the Name of the Lord God Almighty.”

It was free young people who refused to bow and subsequently exhibited freedom even in the midst of a fiery furnace. It was a free man who prayed down fire from heaven and then shouted “Get ready, here comes the rain!”

Although they had been held behind the prison bars of human laws, spiritually free disciples replied to their captors, “Which is right in God’s eyes: to listen to you, or to him? You be the judges! As for us, we cannot help speaking about what we have seen and heard” (Acts 4:19–20).

The Spirit of Pentecost not only looses the chains of injustice and sets the oppressed free; He breaks the yokes of anxiety, fear, and defeat, empowering God’s people to proclaim the message of freedom to others.

What is the Holy Spirit saying to me?

ACTIVATION

Pray for God’s people to cry out to the Holy Spirit in the midst of their bondage. Pray for eyes to be opened and hearts to be healed as believers learn how to walk in freedom

Appropriate freedom for yourself in any areas you are struggling. Declare your freedom by the blood of the Lamb and the power of the Holy Spirit.
