It is for freedom that Christ has set us free.


Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery...You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in love...


Live as free people, but do not use your freedom as a cover-up for evil; live as God’s slaves...To this, you were called, because Christ suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow in His steps...


But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the benefit you reap leads to holiness, and the result is eternal life... Once you were alienated from God and were enemies in your minds because of your evil behavior.

But now He has reconciled you by Christ’s physical body through death to present you holy in His sight, without blemish and free from accusation— if you continue in your faith, established and firm, and do not move from the hope held out in the gospel.


This is the gospel that you heard and that has been proclaimed to every creature under heaven... Through Him everyone who believes is set free from every sin, a justification you were not able to obtain under the law of Moses...

Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death.”


Galatians 5:1,13; 1 Peter 2:16,21; Romans 6:22; Colossians 1:21-23; Acts 13:39; Romans 8:1-2


Bible verses about freedom in Christ

Pay attention daughter, Jesus is “...Him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by His blood...” Revelation 1:6.

Notice the verb tense.

Love is ongoing forever but freed is done.

You are free.

You have been set free.

Any slavery you experience is your choice.

Don’t allow the enemy to steal this gift.

Yes, to live in the world, there are laws to follow to keep your physical freedom.

Your soul and your spirit are free.

Embrace and cherish this freedom you have been graced with.

Your turn ...

Begin or continue with even more confidence in living free in Christ.

Memorize and then practice the following, “In Him and through faith in Him we may approach God with freedom and confidence.” Ephesians 3:12

In celebration child come and pray, “May Your unfailing love come to me, LORD, Your salvation, according to Your promise; then I can answer anyone who taunts me, for I trust in Your word.

Never take Your word of truth from my mouth, for I have put my hope in Your laws. I will always obey Your law, forever and ever. I will walk about in freedom, for I have sought out Your precepts.

And, I will speak of Your statutes before kings and will not be put to shame, for I delight in Your commands because I love them. I reach out for Your commands, which I love, that I may meditate on Your decrees.”

Psalm 119:41-48

“Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom...Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free... So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.”

2 Corinthians 3:17; John 8:32, 36

How to do this as a weekly Bible study

Day One: Experience Read the entire devotion. Do any verses stand out to you? If so, write it down and work on memorizing it over the week. I personally love the app “Scripture Typer.”

Day Two: Observe & Read Chain. Look up and chain verses (For example on how to chain verses, see this video).

Day Three: Interpret Read through the chain of verses starting with the first one. What do they say? Do you notice when it says “never” or “always” or “If, but, however, therefore, all…..”

Day Four: Application Do “Your turn” and make a list of people that God has put on your heart when you read this.

Day Five: Testify Who in your life, right now, can you share this with? There is somebody in your life that needs to hear this. Close your eyes. What name came to mind?
