Jesus said, “Everyone who sins is a slave to sin…” To live in sin is slavery. Sin owns you. “But if the Son of God sets you free…” (John 8:34, 36) Through Christ’s death on the cross, appropriated by your faith in Him, the power of sin is broken and His resurrection power, through the Holy Spirit, enters into your life. You are a new creation. The old has gone and the new has come. In Jesus, there are no slaves, only sons and daughters reborn by the Spirit of God. In Him, "You are truly free.”
Jesus said, “Here I am, it is written about me... I have come to do your will, O God.” (Hebrews 10:7) At one time, we were powerless to do the will of God. But now the Spirit of Jesus has entered into our soul, freeing us to discern God’s will and do it. And when we fail, the blood of Jesus covers our failures. He picks us up and puts us back on the true path of life. The Bible says, “The Lord is the Spirit and wherever the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.” (2 Corinthians 3:17) If the Spirit of Jesus lives in you, then you are truly free.
All of this is a free gift from God, for those who will freely receive. And it comes with an invitation to all who will accept. The Spirit and all believers say, “Come.” “Anyone who is willing is welcome to come and take the free gift of the Water of Life.” (Revelation 22:17) Again, the willingness to receive Jesus, appropriates the blessing. The Water of Life is the Spirit. He is the perpetual source of eternal life that comes to live in all who believe and receive Jesus.
Jesus is standing at the door of your heart, knocking. He desires to come in. Invite Him in and enter with all believers into a personal relationship with God. Knowing the only true God and Jesus Christ, whom He sent, is eternal life.
