“No Longer Slaves Leading to Fear”

Blessings folk!

Do not fear!

If you have truly repented/confessed/called upon the Name of the Lord, then you are saved and fear should have no place in your life.

Now, again, I hasten to state…not the fear of the fleeing backward when encountering a snake. LOL

I’m talking about the fear of the flesh.
The fear of circumstance.
The fear of man.
Such fear binds one and becomes the true god of life.

The Lord tells us that we are set free from such…

Rom 8:12-15

So then, brethren, we are under obligation, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh—

for if you are living according to the flesh, you must die;
but if by the Spirit you are putting to death the deeds of the body, you will live.

For all who are being led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.

For you have not received a spirit of slavery leading to fear again,
but you have received a spirit of adoption as sons by which we cry out, “Abba! Father!”

We are no longer slaves to the flesh.
Such leads to fear.

We do well to examine ourselves.

We are told that we will know by “their fruit”…Jesus said…

Mat 7:20
“So then, you will know them by their fruits.


Which are you?

Fruit/deeds of the flesh?

Gal 5:19
Now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are:
immorality,
impurity,
sensuality,

idolatry,
sorcery,
enmities,
strife,
jealousy,
outbursts of anger,
disputes,
dissensions, 
factions,

envying,
drunkenness,
carousing,
and things like these,
of which I forewarn you, just as I have forewarned you,
that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.


Or, fruit of the Spirit?

Gal 5:22-25
But the fruit of the Spirit is…
love,
joy,
peace,
patience,
kindness,
goodness,
faithfulness,

gentleness,
self-control;
against such things there is no law.

Now those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.

If we live by the Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit.

If you are not of the Spirit, you will manifest the deeds of the flesh as a pattern of life.

If you are of the Spirit, then you will live by the Spirit, walk by the Spirit, manifest fruit of the Spirit.
