For many generations, the human race has been held
in captivity by the forces of self satisfaction and evil.
We have literally been held prisoners in a cursed world.
After so long a time in this condition, it became a normal
way of life for mankind. We have all pretty well adapted
to it. However, when the Holy Spirit draws us to the
Lord and we respond, our eyes are opened and the light
shines on the truth of our depraved and lost condition.
We can also see the glorious realm of God's kingdom
that we have been brought into by the blood of Christ.
What an amazing rescue. If the Holy Spirit is drawing
you to the Lord Jesus Christ, respond now and know the
wonderful gift of freedom from a cursed world and
freedom to dwell in the kingdom of God from now
through eternity.
Heavenly Father, we just want to thank you and praise
you for the wonderful gift of freedom you have provided
for us through your Son Jesus Christ. Help us to be
sensitive to the Holy Spirit so that we can speak to
those who need to be rescued and bring your light
to this dark world. In Jesus' name. Amen
Read Colossians 1:13
"For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness
and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves."
(NIV)
"Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness,
and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear
Son." (KJV)
