Freedom Without Constraints!

DAY 1 OF 3

A PERSONAL WITNESS OF CONSTRAINTS

Many of you are aware that my body has been under a physical attack. I have shared openly over the years that I have Essential Tremors, a disease of the Central Nervous System.

I have been anointed with oil and prayed over by those who believe in healing. Because I have yet to experience healing from the tremors, one might think that this would waver my faith in healing. I believe that God can heal anything. It is not for me to question, for I know He is able!

Most recently, my daughter prayed over me. Not for my healing, but rather that I would flow in freedom, without any constraints! WOW! That hit me. I had never thought of my healing in that way. Before she left that day, she tucked a love note under my pillow that I found at bedtime! It simply read:

“Thank You God for complete freedom, with no constraint in our lives.”
“It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.” Galatians 5:1

I have to admit that my affliction has denied me of living life fully in freedom without any constraints. It has robbed me of attending large gatherings, church, and family gatherings. When I get around a lot of people, my nervous system tenses and the shaking worsens to the point that I feel my brain could seize or my heart fail.

I may not be able to attend things I desire however, my faith, joy, and spiritual freedom are from my God, not large gatherings.

Important: We must be in God’s word and get it into our spirits, so when the enemy of our souls tries to constrain our mind through lies, we recognize it!

I have learned through this experience that there is a difference in physical and spiritual freedom. A person physically constrained can still find joy in spiritual freedom without constraints. Do I miss the gatherings? I do, however, God has shown me I can communicate through notes, social media, and in small settings, so I am not missing out totally!!

PRACTICE: Be thankful and praise the Lord, if you are not constrained physically, then think of ways to free yourself of any spiritual constraints.

PRAYER:Thank You, Lord, that we can be free spiritually! In Jesus’ Name. Amen

About this Plan

Freedom Without Constraints!

A love note found under my pillow and a prayer so powerful! The words on that paper came alive to me. Because I have a physical affliction, I began to realize how we allow things we can’t control to prevent us from being totally, free in Christ! May we learn to remove any constraints that keep us from living in freedom! (Devotional Cover includes picture of the note).
