 JESUS SETS US FREE

"If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed."

John 8:36
King James Version

The Gaither Vocal Band sings the beautiful heart touching and inspiring hymn "It Is Finished". It is one of my favorite hymns. I'm so glad the words in this hymn are true.

"There's a line that is drawn through the ages On that line stands an old rugged cross On that cross, a battle is raging To gain a man's soul or it's loss

On one side, march the forces of evil All the demons, all the devils of hell On the other, the angels of glory And they meet on Golgotha's hill

The earth shakes with the force of the conflict And the sun refuses to shine For there hangs God's son, in the balance And then through the darkness he cries

It is finished, the battle is over It is finished, there'll be no more war It is finished, the end of the conflict It is finished and Jesus is Lord

Yet in my heart, the battle was still raging Not all prisoners of war had come home These were battlefields of my own making I didn't know that the war had been won

Oh, but then I heard the king of the ages Had fought all the battles for me And that victory was mine for the claiming And now praise his name, I am free."

Have you allowed Jesus to set you free? If you have never confessed yours sins, asked God to forgive you and invited Jesus into your heart to be your Saviour, I urge you to do it even as you read this devotion.

Don't keep hurting Jesus and don't miss out on spending eternity with the One Who loves you so much He died for you.

I love You so much, dear Jesus. Thank You for all You have done for me.
