Two More Thoughts About Your Freedom

Okay. One more thing about sin and how important it is that we understand how free we are from it. Well, two things. First, it is important how you think. The Bible tells us to change the way we think. It tells us to meditate on His Word day and night. We are to talk about it at the table and discuss it before we go to bed. We are to think on things that are pure and holy and of good report. Where your mind goes, you go. Fill up that empty space formerly held by sin with God's Word. Life will change for you. The other point is that sickness and sin are related. Sin brought sickness into this world. You are going to come up against some things in life brought about by sickness, etc. in this world. You can take great care of yourself and still fall victim. So, your freedom from sin and it's effects causes you to tap in to God's supernatural ability to heal. But before the hit comes, you must renew your mind to God's truth in this area. Develop your "faith muscles" so you are ready for the fight when it comes. Read Galatians 4:1-11. You are God's adopted child. With adoption comes all the benefits a natural child has. Again, you are God's child. Wouldn't you do everything you can to protect and help your child? Well, God's the same way and even better! Verse seven says, you are no longer a servant (of the law) but a son and therefore an heir to all God has for you. It's time to dip into the inheritance! There is plenty to go around!
