Standing firm in all things...according to the will of God. Let go of the old man and grow as you're being transformed by the Spirit. Stand firm in what you have in and what comes with Christ. You don't need the world or anything in it; only what we're called to do here and who we're called to serve.
We voluntarily pick up that yoke and put it on ourselves when we look to the world. We voluntarily carry the burdens of sin and our flesh. We choose to step into slavery, selling ourselves into it for the cheap price of a fleeting pleasure, gratifying our fleshly desires.
Praise the LORD for not letting me live the way I used to, for opening my eyes and seeing sin as it is: sin. Destructive, but something we can all be freed from by Christ alone.
Praise Him for pulling each and every one of us out of ourselves.
My application for today is to write "Set Free" on my wrist as a reminder, as well as putting this verse in my concordance under the topic of "Freedom".
