The Lord gives freedom beyond circumstances, beyond what man can give and beyond what our natural minds can comprehend! Wherever the Holy Spirit and His anointing is, there is freedom! A person that is truly led by the Spirit in all he says and does will experience supernatural freedom. Take this journey with me and let the Lord renew your mind and give you a fresh revelation on how to live free.
Galatians 5:1 (AMP) - It was for this freedom that Christ set us free [completely liberating us]; therefore keep standing firm and do not be subject again to a yoke of slavery.
Jesus gave His life so that we could be free and so that we could be completely liberated – once you receive the freedom that He brings… never allow bondage or suppression or ungodly control to ever take away your freedom!
Galatians 5:1 (TPT) - Let me be clear, the Anointed One has set us free—not partially, but completely and wonderfully free! We must always cherish this truth and stubbornly refuse to go back into the bondage of our past.
James 1:25 - He who looks into the perfect law of freedom and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does.
We are no longer under the Old Covenant or under the Law of Moses – we now are in the New Covenant under the Law of Jesus… the Law of Jesus is a Law of liberty and freedom! Whenever a person follows Jesus, that person is on a pathway of freedom, leading to even more freedom.
HOW CAN YOU BE FREE IN A SOCIETY OF BONDAGE?
Everybody that is not in Christ is in bondage – sadly many believers also continue to live in bondage… many do not have a revelation of grace, a revelation of the Love of God for us, or a revelation of the perfect Law of liberty in Christ. Dead religion is run on bondage, control and fear… the whole antichrist system of this world is run on fear, control and bondage!
As free believers, we are totally surrounded by bound, fearful people, so how can a free believer truly live free in this age of bondage?
HOW CAN YOU BE FREE WHEN GOVERNING AUTHORITIES TAKE AWAY YOUR FREEDOM?
Everywhere you look, all over the world, leaders, politicians, governing authorities and fearful society are in bondage, under the control of the powers of darkness and trying to force their bondage onto everybody around them. The devil hates freedom and his number one goal is to strip away all freedom.
When believers try to live free or try to express the values of true freedom, they get ridiculed, persecuted and they become hated by society at large… this is the current reality! Just look at how this covid-19 thing has been run globally. It has totally been run on a system of lies, false so-called facts, control, fear and manipulation led by tyrannical leaders that all have been blinded by the system of bondage that they have been sucked into… so, again, how can we as free believers actually live free in this world of bondage, manipulation and control?
WHERE THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD IS, THERE IS FREEDOM!
In other words, when you are led by the Spirit, influenced by the Spirit and controlled by the Spirit and Him alone… then, and only then will you live truly free!
There is a false narrative out there that believers need to do what they are told or pressured to do, and for them to live by the principles and the worldviews of those around them – if you do this, you will not make waves, but you will be as bound up as those around you – they are the blind leading the blind and cannot be followed, or trusted in anything. Thinking that you have to do what deceived, ungodly, bound up, demon influenced, so-called leaders say is unscriptural and will take away your freedom in Christ!
We are not to do as we please, we are not to do as those around us do, we are to be led by the Spirit under the perfect Law of liberty in all things! This is not being rebellious, this is being Spirit led in everything, just as Jesus was!
Jesus did not do what others told Him to do…
Jesus did not do what the government told Him to do…
Jesus only did what the Father told Him to do…
Jesus was Spirit led in ALL things!
Jesus did not wake up and read the daily newspaper to see what the latest laws were that the Roman Empire had set in place… He did not consider the latest bondage that Herod, or the Pharisees, or the Sadducees had put in place, so He could comply and not get in trouble… Jesus woke up every day and determined to be 100% Spirit led!
The freedom that Jesus walked in bothered everybody that was subject to the system of bondage and fear. Jesus was hated, slandered and eventually crucified because He could not and would not be controlled or live in bondage to the blind the lost and the deceived.
PRAY ABOUT EVERYTHING, AND THEN DO WHAT THE HOLY SPIRIT LEADS YOU TO DO…
In these last days that we are living in, persecution, control and fear-driven bondage is going to increase more and more… believers have to learn how to be Spirit led in all things! We have to be so Spirit led that we do everything that we do, totally yielded to the Spirit’s leading. This is the only path to true freedom!
When we are led by the Spirit, where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty! This means that as you follow His leading, you will have total freedom, provision, safety, peace and joy in everything… regardless of circumstances! Many will hate you and judge you… they will even judge your motives and say that you are selfish because you are non-compliant and not subject to the world’s bondage, but that goes with the territory of being free.
Again, true freedom is not doing whatever you want, when you want, regardless of others… true freedom is doing what the Holy Spirit wants, when He wants, regardless of others… there is a BIG difference!
Through this whole covid-19 thing, we have visited the people that the Spirit has led us to visit, we have met as groups or in person everytime the Spirit has told us to meet, we have met online and broadcasted online everytime the Spirit has told us to do it… we have even gone to the beach and relaxed every time the Spirit has told us to do it…
I have determined to follow the Lord and Him only, as we have done this, He has provided and protected, He has hidden us and interfered with the enemies plans to harm us… we have done everything in plain sight, but only those that needed to see, saw us doing the Father’s will. This is how every believer is going to have to live in these last days… this is the new normal!
The new normal is not bondage, it is not living on a lower level, it is no living according to a fear driven, godless agenda, it is living FREE… living in greater freedom than ever before, under the leading of the Spirit as salt and light and life and love!
GIVE THE HOLY SPIRIT A BLANK CHECK!
“What are you leading me to do today, this week and this month Holy Spirit? I will continue the works of Jesus in these last days, I will walk in freedom and I will never allow bondage or control to take away my freedom! I will live free under the leading of the Spirit for the rest of my days, I will be led by the Spirit in all of my ways, I will take my eyes off of the enemies plans and keep my eyes focused on Jesus, the author and finisher of my faith!”
Blessings on you, Nick
