Joel Osteen 27th August 2021 Friday – You Are Not a Slave, written by Joel & Victoria Osteen
JOEL OSTEEN DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR FRIDAY 27 AUGUST 2021
TOPIC: YOU ARE NOT A SLAVE
Today’s Scripture: John 8:36, AMP
“So if the Son makes you free, then you are unquestionably free.”
Joel Osteen 27 August 2021 Daily Devotional Message:
Because of negative things in the past or even mistakes we’ve made, too often we develop a slave mentality. We think we’re at a disadvantage, so we don’t pursue our dreams or pray bold prayers. We live as though we’re a slave to an addiction, to depression, to mediocrity, to others’ approval. But today’s Scripture says the Son of God has set us free. You are not a slave; you are a child of the Most High God.
Sons and daughters think differently than slaves. You may struggle with an addiction, but you say, “I have a right to be free.” There may be obstacles in your path, but you know the forces for you are greater than the forces against you.
God has defeated the enemy and freed us from sin, guilt, depression, and sicknesses. You need to rise up and say, “I’m a son. I’m not a slave to my past, to people who hurt me, to addiction, to poverty, or to lack. I’m a child of the Most High God.”
A Prayer for Today
“Father, thank You that You have made me Your child, and Jesus has set me free. Thank You that You redeemed me from sin and guilt and sickness. I believe and declare that the forces for me are greater than the forces against me. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
