Reflect
Today we read one of my favourite passages in the whole Bible! This passage is filled with promises of God and the reality of life in the Spirit. By the power and authority of the Holy Spirit, we are able to put to death the deeds of our flesh and live in the 'life' that God promises us. The incredible thing about this is that when we live by the Spirit, we no longer live as 'slaves' who are afraid of God and His punishment. We live as 'sons and daughters,' heirs of God with Christ, who understand that life in the Spirit is the best life that we could possibly live! Take some time today to receive God's Spirit and ask the Spirit to reveal where you still may have a 'slave' mentality. Once God has revealed this to you, ask Him to speak your identity as a son or daughter over you, that you would receive a spirit of sonship and 'put to death' everything in your life that hinders love!
