It's the Greatest News EVER!

S-It's the greatest news today.

S-"So Christ has really set us free. Now make sure that you stay free, and don't get tied up again in slavery to the law." Galatians 5:1

A-God's Freedom From Sin's Control

L-He Destroyed It!!!

"If we are living now by the Holy Spirit, let us follow the Holy Spirits leading in every part of our lives." Galatians 5:25

If we, who are in Christ Jesus, filled with the Holy Spirit allow Him complete control of our lives, our thoughts will be more on Him than on ourselves. Our desires will be to please Him, not our sinful nature. If the Holy Spirit is in control our lifestyle will reflect that of Christ Jesus. We will be loving, kind, patient, gentle, express self-control, etc. It will not be that of our old way of life. This can only be done by the power of the Holy Spirit. We are unable to do it in our own human nature. It's impossible with out Christ!!

But here is the greatest news ever, "God destroyed sin's control over us by giving His Son as a sacrifice for our sins." Romans 8:3

Because of God's love for us, He destroyed sin's control over us by the blood of His Son. Do you understand how great of a sacrifice that was?

Are you living in that freedom today?

Oh, sweet one there is nothing greater than walking in the freedom of Christ's love and mercy. Sin no longer has control over us who are in Christ Jesus.

Let's be living examples of Christ's love and sacrifice by letting the Holy Spirit be in control of our lives.

S-Share the importance of the Holy Spirit with someone today. Tell them what God did for us when He  sent His One and Only Son, Jesus to die for us and destroy sin's control over us. Then rejoice and give thanks for God's loving kindness.
