Freedom Word Fighters Friday #2

This is my second edition of Freedom Word Fighters Friday. Mostly all battles that we fight are spiritual, which takes far more energy than a physical fight. That's my opinion. Ephesians 6:12 says, "For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places."

Because we are in a spiritual battle, we have to fight with spiritual weapons. It doesn't matter how strong you are physically, if you are not equally or stronger in the spirit, you will be fighting a losing battle. One of the many ways to strengthen our spirits, is the Word of God. God's word is like a hammer; And is sharper than any other physical sharp sword ready to slice and dice strongholds, chains, shackles into shreds. So, the scripture that I am bringing to the table to fight is.........


THERE is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.
(Romans 8:1-2)

The minute you decide to confess Christ as your Saviour is the same minute you become free in His Name. You are no longer under the law of sin and death, but under a new law (the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus). Jesus died on the cross for our sins, so that we can be free in Him. Free from sin.....Free from the nasty ol' devil...........Free from the past hurts and pains...........Free from unhealthy relationships.

Jesus is the ultimate Freedom Fighter. He endured what no other man endured or was capable of enduring. The least we can do to show our love and gratitude is to make sure we remain free in His name by refusing to be ignorant of satan's devices. Satan's devices are used to capture us and keep us as prisoners of sin. But as long as we stay and keep training in God's word, we will be ready to fight to maintain our freedom in Jesus' name.


Your Sister in Christ,
