What binds you? And what is it that you need to release? These questions should be asked by anyone seeking to enjoy true freedom and joy. It is a core tenant of the Christian faith-“to go up you must give up”. Following Jesus’s example to take up the cross and die to self. Yet most Christians stay in bondage to their fear of giving up control-control of their finances, control of their time, control of their right to worry and obsess over the problems and trials of this world. CHRISTIAN OR NON-CHRISTIAN alike all face the same trials and tribulations-it is life. The biggest lie the enemy wants us to believe is that we can control it. WE can’t. You can’t control the moment of your death, your loved ones, your children-not forever. In the end, everyone has the power to choose. Those choices, good or bad, lead to the moments that define our lives. Yet regardless of choice, our lives go on. Bad choices can ultimately be the thing that brings around the greatest growth and puts you in position to experience the next level of your life. So really, even your choices are not something to fret over. Seek God, seek counsel, make the best decision you can and move on trusting that it will work out for your good because it WILL!
There is something bigger at work here. Something behind the scenes working all things for good. I believe that force is God-working in His creation to bring about good despite the many chains WE CHOOSE to wear. There is a freedom in releasing to one more powerful than ourselves. Think logically for a minute-if you can not control the outcome of almost any major thing in this life-why do we worry obsessively over it? We sweat making payroll, we worry about our kids, we worry about our spouse, we worry about our death, our life, our time, our friends, our family. Yet HUNDREDS of times in Scripture we are told NOT to fear and NOT to worry. We disobey God at every turn and then ask for Him to fix everything. Kind of silly really.
Recently I was challenged to release one of the last areas that I was trying to control and I think I passed the test. And the joy I feel is immense! I am free! Like really Free! And this mortgage business gives us so many opportunities to learn release-because really, you can’t control whether a loan closes, rolls or dies. Control is an illusion. So I ask you again, what area of your life are you trying to control? When will you give up that control and release it to someone more able to handle it then you? God can handle it if you trust him. So stop worrying, start releasing, and start really living. You can do it! Exodus 14:14
