Real Freedom


John 8:36 So if the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed.
Even though in these messages I use phrases like losing or releasing weight TODAY I want to remind you that our real goal as we know it is FREEDOM from compulsive, addictive and habitual overeating. Once that freedom is confessed with our mouths and believed in our hearts in a consistent, committed and faithful manner then our bodies will exhibit weight loss.
There are times when I am sure that all of us lose focus of our real goal and get about the busyness of trying to lose weight and not maintain our freedom and deliverance. Today we must put and KEEP our focus back on God and what His word says about us and our freedom and deliverance. We must as much as needed confess in faith what His words says about our strength, our deliverance and our healing. We worship Him because We know that as His children our freedom is cemented and concrete. Gluttony is a spiritual problem and must be dealt with in a spiritual manner. There are tons of people that lost weight without God and those people deal with the issue of maintaining their weight loss everyday. They will tell you it is something that they feel they must deal with everyday. Well as a believer in Jesus Christ that is not my agenda. I am called to be free. Galatians 5:1 It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.
Be Blessed, Manie
