Freedom through the Cross

Jesus’ death on the Cross was a great victory for us. Because God dealt with our sin on the Cross, it means that all the misery and suffering – which is a result of sin – was dealt with.

1. Freedom from Satan

Colossians 2:15
He disarmed the rulers and authorities and put them to open shame, by triumphing over them in him.

Colossians 1:13
He has delivered us from the domain of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son,

2. Freedom from Sin

Colossians 2:13
And you, who were dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses,

3. Freedom from sickness

Matthew 8:17
This was to fulfill what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah: “He took our illnesses and bore our diseases.”

4. Freedom from the Curse

Galatians 3:13
Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us—for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who is hanged on a tree”


Lamentations 3:22-23

Because of the LORD's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. --

What sustained you through the night? What will get you through today?
What will enable you to achieve, even thrive, in the days that lie ahead?
 The LORD's mercies. These incredible resources never really run out! Each new day brings a fresh supply of them.

God is faithful to make sure we have them each day. Praise be to God for making our world new and clean each new day.
