In the book of Daniel the three Hebrew boys had their hands and feet bound firmly with ropes and then were thrown into a fiery furnace for refusing to bow to King Nebuchadnezzar’s golden idol. This seemed like an impossible situation for survival. But in that furnace, the only thing that burned were the cords that held them bound. God was showing us that there’s no bondage the enemy puts on you that He can’t break. There’s no addiction, no depression, no sickness that He can’t free you from. Yes, there will be opposition. The enemy will try to bind and restrict in any way he can. Sometimes the medical report is not good, or your child is off course, or the addiction seems permanent. Those cords are only temporary. Your time of release is coming.
God wants us to see Him not just as a God who protects, but as a God who frees from oppression, who breaks bondages, who releases you from what has confined you. The same God who burned up the ropes that held the teenagers captive is about to burn up what’s restricting you. In Jesus Mighty Name Amen.
Father Lord Jesus i thank You that whatever has restricted me in the past has lost its grip because Your Son defeated the enemy on the cross and has brought me into freedom. Thank You that my hands are no longer tied. I believe that the fourth man has set me free. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
