(John 8:36)
You have been set free by Christ. Jesus gained victory and freedom for you when He was raised from the dead. The moment you received Jesus, victory and freedom became yours.
Declare your independence! It is time to proclaim your emancipation. You have a bill of rights given to you by your heavenly Father through His Son, Jesus Christ. He has set you "free indeed." This means entirely, totally, completely, without any question, doubt, or objection. You are free!
You are free from the powers of Satan. You can say as Jesus said, "&the ruler of this world is coming, and he has nothing in Me" (John 14:30). Therefore, give no place to the devil. (Eph. 4:27).
"Our soul has escaped as a bird from the snare of the fowlers; the snare is broken, and we have escaped. Our help is in the name of the Lord, who made heaven and earth" (Ps. 124:7-8).
The power of the enemy was broken when Jesus was raised from the dead. No snare of Satan, sin, or fear can hold you.
Not only are you free from the powers of darkness, you are also freed into the kingdom of light. You are free to love, give to others, enjoy the abundant life, and do acts of righteousness.
John 8:36 AMP reads, "So if the Son liberates you [makes you free men], then you are really and unquestionably free." Stand, therefore, in the freedom that Christ purchased for you.
