Right now, in this present time, many of us are feeling confined, maybe even like we are in a sort of "prison." We are being held hostage to our circumstances.
But I truly believe that our joy, our inner peace, our happiness is really our choice. We can choose peace instead of anxiety, faith instead of fear, hope instead of hurt, freedom instead of bondage.
And it is through the strength of God that we do that. I tried for too many years to will myself better, to pull myself up by my bootstraps, to do it myself. When I SURRENDERED I was set free.
If you are chained to your negative emotions you can choose today to be set free.
And I am praying that our loved ones today, make the same choice.
August 2, 2022 Our prayer for our Loved One today:
Galatians 5:1 MSG
[1] Christ has set us free to live a free life. So take your stand! Never again let anyone put a harness of slavery on you.
Oh, Abba Daddy, we come to you today broken, truly at the end of ourselves. Entrapped by our own fears, anxiety and desire to control. Lord, we ask that you free us! Lord you came to set us free and we desire to receive all that you have for us. And Lord, we humbly desire freedom for (our loved one). You came to give (him/her) a free life. Lord, we pray that today (our loved one) will take a stand. That (he/she) will wake up and say NO MORE! That (he/she) will fully surrender to all that You have for (him/her). Lord, we believe that you can lift the chains of slavery that keep them in bondage. Lord, deliver us all from the things that entangle us. Lift the darkness and bring us into the light. We ask this in your Son's precious name. Amen
