Why many believers are in bondage
Jesus came to set the captives free, absolutely free from bondage, anxiety, fear. Those whom the Son of God has set free will be free and will be free indeed. They are delivered by believing in Jesus. Believing in Jesus means that we cast our hopes on Him and therefore we obey Him. Many believers are still captives because they do not really believe, they do not obey Jesus, they do not take His Words seriously. They are selective about obeying Jesus Christ. There are certain things of the Words that Jesus spoke that they do not accept. The Words of Jesus set us free, if we believe and OBEY them. But if we decide that certain things we will not do, then we are not under submission of Jesus Christ, then we don’t trust Him and then we go back into bondage. If we do not obey Jesus, then we do not have confidence to pray, we do not have confidence to trust Him. If we do not trust Him wholeheartedly then we fall back into bondage. Jesus said: Love your enemies, when somebody beats you to turn the other cheek. People say, they won’t do that, they won’t submit themselves to Jesus because they don’t trust Jesus and therefore they are still in bondage, they do not believe, they are not free. They are slaves of fear, uncertainty, of sin, because they do not submit themselves to Jesus. If we want to be truly free, then we must believe Jesus, OBEY His Words and TRUST Him that He will take care of us. If we don’t trust Him, then we go back into bondage, like so many believers are, because they do not really trust Jesus. Jesus said: "When the Son of man comes back, will he find faith on the earth?" Do you really believe in Jesus? Are you free? Or are you still in bondage? May Jesus bless you.
