REAL FREEDOM
by Joanne Lowe July 4, 2006
“And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his
brother, saying, Know the Lord: for they shall all know me, from the
least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the Lord: for I will
forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.”
Jeremiah 31: 34
King James Version
If we haven’t invited the Christ of Calvary into our hearts and asked
Him to forgive us for our sins, we don’t have real freedom. When Jesus
applies His blood of forgiveness to our hearts, we will have fireworks
of happiness, love, joy, acceptance, mercy and forgiveness in our
hearts.
Every day should be a celebration because Jesus has set us free from the
guilt of our past. He, who knew no sin, took our sins upon Him on the
cross so that we may have this precious freedom in our hearts. He paid
an agonizing price so that we would be set free from our sins and be
assured of a home in Heaven with Him for eternity. There is no real
freedom until Jesus sets us free from the bondage of sin.
There will be people watching the fireworks display tonight that have
unforgiveness in their hearts because they have never forgiven the
people that have hurt them. O’ that we would understand that we also
hurt people. How can we ask the Saviour of the world to forgive us and
not hold our past against us when we don’t forgive our families, loved
ones and friends?
Do you have the freedom of Jesus in your heart? Have you asked Him to
forgive you? If so, then you need to forgive others as He has so
graciously forgiven you. Only then, will you have real freedom in your
heart.
