Bondgaes!

Exodus 20: 2I am the Lord your God which brought you out of the land of Egypt out of the houses of bondage.Romans 8 :15“But you have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but you have received the spirit of adoption whereby we cry Abba Father“The Shame, fears, guilt are all bondages! Leaves us feeling dirty cant get out of it because we are addicted to what we are doing.If we are ask why we do such actions we can't simply reply why...in Romans 7:21-24 "So I find this law at work: When I want to do good, evil is right there with me. 22For in my inner being I delight in God's law; 23but I see another law at work in the members of my body, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work within my members. 24What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death?"Chains from drugs, alcohol, cigarettes , sleep, sex, food, pornography , leave their captives in a feeling of defeat! The roots in sin are warned of in Proverbs 5:22 “ His own iniquities shall take the wicked himself and he shall be HELD with the cords of his sins. “ I say to you who ever commits sin is the servant of sin.” We are in bondage of sins, defeated and taken captives to our sins!The unwillingness for us to change and seeds of rebellion gave way to defeatism! our sins kept us in bondage.Acts 8: 22, 23 tells us repentance yields the prospect of forgiveness. The word repentance means a complete change in the direction of your travel and destination! A complete turn around from running away to running to our father! The bitterness - of rebellion can be replaced with the sweetness of victory!God has set us FREE...we are FREE from the oppression of sin.We cry Freedom! Freedom!Luke 4:18 "The Spirit of the Lord is on me,because he has anointed meto preach good news to the poor.He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisonersand recovery of sight for the blind,to release the oppressed".Set your people FREE from oppression
