RHAPSODY OF REALITIES FRIDAY, 18TH SEPTEMBER.
SIN-FREE AND DEATH-FREE
There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit, for the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death (Romans 8:1-2).
The Christian life is one of absolute liberty in Christ. The moment you were born again, you were brought into a new realm of existence with dominion over sin and death. This is what the Apostle Paul unveils in Romans 8:1-2.
Notice the distinction: The one who’s in Christ no longer walks according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. Why? The answer is in the second verse: a new law is now at work in him—“the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus.” This law has made you free from death, and the law of sin.
The expression “made me free” as used by the Apostle Paul is deeper than merely being delivered from something. It carries the thought of separation; complete separation from the dominion and influence of sin and from death. It literally means you’re sin-free and death-free.
This is a vital truth every Christian must understand. Many still think of themselves as vulnerable to the same limitations, fears, corruption, and death that dominate the natural man. But the Word says otherwise. You’ve been brought into righteousness, into the realm of life and immortality through the Gospel.
2 Timothy 1:9-10 tells us the Lord Jesus has “…saved us, and called us with an holy calling…abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel.” The life in you now is the resurrection life of Christ. It’s superior to sin, darkness, sickness, fear, failure, and death.
This is why you should never think, talk, or act like one under the bo***ge of sin or of death. The God-life in you has intrinsic attributes—sinlessness and deathlessness! Walk in this consciousness. Refuse to accommodate guilt, defeat, condemnation, or death in any form. You belong to another realm: the sin-free and death-free zone. Hallelujah!
PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus that has made me sin-free and death-free. I walk in the consciousness of eternal life, victory, dominion, and righteousness. Fear, condemnation, sickness and death have no place in me, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
