Bound By God

Bound By God – As we mature in our walk with God, we come to understand just how bound we were to things of the world that kept us from growing and maturing.  We had to allow the Lord to break every chain, so our bond to things in the world is broken, and we wholeheartedly bind ourselves to God. It’s important we understand what bound us to the world, so we are free to serve the Lord. We bind ourselves to God, so we can do what pleases him, and not ourselves.  God gives us free will, which allows us to determine what we will bind ourselves to, many try to bind themselves to things in the world, and things of God, but this makes us a lukewarm Christian. For us to receive all the Father desires to give us through Christ Jesus, we must be willing to be bound by God, his truth, his word, his thoughts, his ways, his plan, his Spirit, his Son, so we have eternal life with him.
