TODAY’S WORD FOR TODAY
WHICH ‘LAW’ ARE YOU OPERATING UNDER?
‘The law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.’
That doesn’t mean the law of gravity is no longer the law of gravity. Getting the idea? You ask, ‘What is this law of the Spirit?’ Good question. Here’s the answer. When you’re indwelt by the Holy Spirit and relying on His power rather than your own, which means being sensitive to His leading and obeying His commands, you’re no longer controlled by ‘the law of sin and death’. It’s no longer about trying harder, but leaning harder on God’s Spirit who lives within you and drawing from Him the strength to live victoriously.
