“…..proclaim freedom throughout the land for all who live there…..”
Father as citizens of this great nation, the United
States of America, we are privileged to have many freedoms guaranteed to us by
our constitution. We have been
exceptionally blessed by your grace, protected by your providence and guided by
your wisdom. We are not without fault, failure or frustration. But, thankfully,
we remain free. Free to pursue to life, liberty and happiness.
Father, help us to use our precious freedom for your
greater glory, the good of our fellow citizens, and the benefit of those who
seek refuge in the words of Emma Lazarus: “Give me your tired, your poor, your
huddled masses yearning to breathe free…..”
And Father, may we ever be mindful that the
greatest, most joyous and priceless freedom of all is that spoken of by Jesus: “I tell you the truth, everyone who sins is a slave of
sin. 35 A slave is not a permanent member of the family, but a son
is part of the family forever. 36 So if the Son sets you free, you
are truly free. John 8:34-36
(NLT)
Therefore Father, in the words of the Apostle Paul: “…we praise God for
the glorious grace he has poured out on us who belong to his dear Son. 7 He
is so rich in kindness and grace that he purchased our freedom with the blood
of his Son and forgave our sins. Ephesians
1:6-7 (NLT)
Thank you Father in Jesus name.
Amen
