Break those CHAINS!

Champions, this morning comes with a BAM! Let's get straight to it!

During reflection and prayer my spirit connected with so many people that I see walking around in bondage. Wearing chains of so many different kinds.

Being totally transparent, I think I needed this morning's topic just as much as any of you reading it.

Why? Why? Why, do we allow people,places, and things to hold us captive?

Let me begin with this...Jesus paid the price and all that crud people try to rehash from who you were BC " Before Christ" is hogwash. If you're a born again believer, walk with your head high and remember those chains are gone and you've been set free. If you want to be introduced to this man named Jesus, I encourage you to attend a bible believing church and boldly tell them you want to meet Jesus and have a personal relationship with him.

That brings me to my next point. When you have that solid relationship with Jesus, do not and I repeat...do not allow the devil to have access to your temple. Oh he would love to manipulate and deceive you into thinking you were less than. Possibly you have gotten off the path God intended for you, maybe even backsliding has surfaced? Champions, God allows u-turns. Be careful of what you feed your mind and who you allow to serve it up to you. The company we keep can influence us in either a positive or negative manner. Choose your company wisely. Beware, sometimes the ones closest to you are used by ole slu foot himself.

Lean in...the devil doesn't come at you with pointed ears and a pitch fork wearing a red suit. He comes disguised as something enticing and alluring. Check out 1 Peter 5:8, it will give you some insight.

Jesus broke those chains at the cross.

Whatever you're facing today, what ever has made you feel chained, take it to God in prayer. Make a choice today to walk in freedom! Trust and believe, I know the end of the story and you want to be on team Jesus!

Behold, I have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall hurt you.

Luke 10:9
