We know that our old sinful selves were crucified with Christ so that sin might lose its power in our lives. We are no longer slaves to sin. For when we died with Christ we were set free from the power of sin.
Romans 6: 6-7
Free From Sin
When Jesus died on the cross, He crucified every one of our sins. He crucified our past sins that try to cling so tightly to us. He crucified our current struggles. He crucified our future sins. Our sinful lives and our old selves died with Christ, so it lost its power over us. We are no longer slaves to sin. It has no power or authority over us. When Christ died on the cross, we died with Him and gained freedom from the sin in our lives.
So do you live as though you are free from sin? Or do you live like you are still a slave to it? Sin will creep up on you least expect it. You just live in the blessing of the cross because Christ crucified your sins once and for all.
A Prayer to Remember
Dear Lord,
You have crucified my sins so that I might not live in slavery any longer, but in your freedom. Thank you for freeing me from my sins and strongholds. Amen
