I'M FREE


We need to get a visual of an individual bound under the control of some one else and can't get away on their own. If you never trusted Christ as your personal Savior, that person is you, a slave to sin -- Satan's property.
But through God's Son Jesus, we are redeemed by His blood and forgiven of sin. The eternal perfect God died on the cross for a debt we couldn't pay.
Ephesians 1:6,7 To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved. In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace.
So long I had searched for life's meaning
Enslaved by the world and my greed;
Then the door of the prison was opened by love,
For the ransom was paid --  I was free.

I'm free from the fear of tomorrow
I'm free from the guilt of the past
For I've traded my shackles for a glorious song,
I'm free! Praise The Lord! Free at last!
