Slavery Over!
Children Who’s Spirit Lives In Freedom!!
Sons and Daughters Who See God Fight For Them!!
Didn’t we say to you in Egypt, “Leave us alone, let us serve the Egyptians? It would have been better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in the desert!” Exodus 13: 12
The Israelites are in despair.
They have been journeying in the wilderness with the Lord.
They were just newly set free from slavery.
And then their slavers decided to come after them.
Now they were being hunted.
And yet in spite of seeing such big miracles of God’s power, they still didn’t really know God.
They still had the mindset of hopelessness of slavery.
But in their greatest need,
In their greatest fear,
In their greatest challenge yet,
With Pharaoh and all his horseman coming after them.
Their slavers coming to take them back to Egypt and kill some of them.
They saw God completely remove, completely eliminate their hunters.
God provided a way for their escape.
And their escape, their provision, their pathway through the Red Sea, became their enemies ending.
That what God used to save them, was used to completely remove any hunter, any Egyptian slaver from ever rising against them again.
It’s what Jesus has done for all people too.
His perfect life gained Him the crown of earth, giving Him the keys to death, hell and the grave.
Then His self-sacrifice on the cross, paid for all humanities sinful nature.
That as we accept His payment for our Adam and Eve heart,
we have entered our pathway across the Red Sea.
We have our slavers, our hunters, completely eliminated.
No longer able to take our eternal souls from us.
No longer able to keep us bound to slavery to the world system of trying to earn our salvation.
No longer able to keep us bound to slavery of the ways of the world.
No longer bound to death and sickness.
No longer bound to insecurity and fear.
No longer bound to any trappings, any slaveries of this side of eternity.
May we know that we know that we know Jesus came to set us free from slavery now and forever.
May we know that we know that we know like the Israelites Jesus will completely set us free from anything that is trying to enslave us.
May we know that we know that we know just like the Israelites saw God show up and set them completely free, we will see God show up and completely set us free, from whatever is trying to enslave us here and now, too.
