đŸ“– In [this] freedom Christ has made us free [and completely liberated us]; stand fast then, and do not be hampered and held ensnared and submit again to a yoke of slavery [which you have once put off]. —Galatians 5:1 AMPC
Christ has made us free. He has set us free from sin, sickness, poverty, and every ill that is under the curse of the law. We all have been set free from something. Some people have been set free from alcoholism. Some from drug use. Others have been set free from other addictions, but the bottom line is that they are free now. When God sets us free, we must stand fast in our freedom. We must fight to stay free. We must avoid behaviors that will set us back and cause us to get entangled back into bondage. We must guard our eyes, our ears, and our hearts. We stay vigilant because the adversary will return, and He will try to put us back not only into bondage, but in a place where we are worse than we were before. We must not yield to the enemy. We must resist Him. We must stand fast in our liberty. Whom the Son sets free, is free indeed.
