True faith isn’t about rules, regulations and religion; it’s about redemption, a relationship with Christ and freedom. God wants us to have freedom from:
THE PAIN IN OUR PAST:
“Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.” (Isaiah 43:18-19)
THE PRESSURE OF THE PRESENT:
“When hard pressed, I cried out to The Lord; He brought me into a spacious place. The Lord is with me; I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?”
(Psalm 118:5-6)
THE PESSIMISM ABOUT TOMORROW:
“May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.”
(Romans 15:13)
