Rod Parsley Daily Devotional 4 July 2024, Thursday Message
TOPIC: Your True Independence Day
“The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He has anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the broken-hearted, to preach deliverance to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed; to preach the acceptable year of the Lord.”
– Luke 4:18-19
Today is Independence Day, the day the United States commemorates its freedom from the British Crown. Although we are grateful for the freedoms we enjoy in our country, followers of Christ know true freedom and liberty is found in the Lord Jesus Christ. Now the Lord is the Spirit. And where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty (2 Corinthians 3:17).
The Holy Spirit leads us into all truth, and it is the truth you know that makes you free (John 8:32 KJV). Your life will be changed in an instant when the Lord sets you free from bondage. No matter what has you bound today – sickness, lack, oppression, grief or relationship issues – the Spirit of the Lord can make you free! Turn to the Lord, for He is your true liberty!
Jehovah Joshua Messiah, thank You for true freedom.
