The Gospel for the Godless - Day 5
Day 5: Finding True Freedom
Devotional
Real freedom isn't found in doing whatever we want - it's found in serving the right master. While the world promotes independence and self-determination, these paths often lead to bondage. In contrast, Jesus offers a different kind of freedom - one that brings genuine joy, purpose, and fulfillment through a relationship with Him. When we surrender to His loving leadership, we discover the life we were meant to live.
" Live as people who are free, not using your freedom as a cover-up for evil, but living as servants of God."
- 1 Peter 2:16
Reflection Question
In what ways has surrendering to Christ brought more freedom than trying to maintain control of your own life?
All other empty masters overpromise and underdeliver.
They take more from you than they give.
They leave you empty.
Only the living God gives you more than he requires, fills your hearts with joy.
~ Pastor Mike Mura
Prayer
Lord, thank You for the true freedom found in following You. Help me trust Your leadership and find joy in surrendering to Your perfect will. Continue to show me the fullness of life that comes through serving You. Amen.
