Christ Has Risen - Announce Your Freedom

On Easter morning we say: CHRIST HAS RISEN; HE HAS RISEN INDEED. Well, since He has risen, that means we are free from sickness and disease, poverty and spiritual death. And since we are free from those things, we need to announce our freedom to the demons of hell and satan. We need to announce our freedom every day when we get up, when we go about our day and when we go to bed at night.

We need to announce our freedom when a pain comes to our body. We need to speak to that pain and say: Pain, you’re not welcome here. This is a free body, free of pain, free of sickness and disease, free of all the curse of the law. Body, you are free from anything that the curse of the law might try to bring to you. Body, you are the temple of the Holy Spirit and no sickness and disease can dwell in the same place with the Holy Spirit. Body, you are healthy and healed and whole and well. Body, you are free from the tiredness and weariness of the world. You are free. We need to declare our freedom instead of letting satan handcuff us with sickness and disease and carrying us into his jail cell of bondage and misery. We need to declare, decree, announce with boldness and praise and thanksgiving that we are a free people.

We need to announce our freedom to our pocketbooks and bank accounts and investments when lack and a devouring spirit of want comes knocking at our door. We need to speak to that lack, that want, that devouring spirit and say: No, you don’t. This pocketbook, this bank account, this investment is blessed. Pocketbook, do you know what that means? That means you are overflowing with cash at all times. Bank account, that means you are abundantly overflowing with money. Investments, that means you are the best investments that anyone could have. You bring me great return, at least 100-fold because I am a tither and I am a giver. I am blessed. I am blessed coming in and going out. I am the lender and not the borrower. I am above only and not beneath. I am blessed.

We need to announce our freedom from every bondage that has been set against us. We are a free people. We are not subject to prison and slavery any longer. We are free. Let me quote again my oft-quoted scripture in HEBREWS 2:14,15. Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same, that through death he might destroy (render completely incapacitated, make of no effect, bring to nought, make void, render inoperative, render powerless, break the power, reduce to zero) him that had (past tense) the power (dominion) of death, that is, the devil; and deliver (release, redeem, set at liberty, set free) them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to (dominated by) bondage.

And then how about the scripture in COLOSSIANS 2:15.
Amplified Bible: God disarmed principalities and powers that were ranged against us and made a bold display and public example of them, in triumphing over them in Him and in the cross (stripped them of their weapons, unclothed them, deprived them of their possessions by force, stripped them of their authority and led them in triumphal possession).

And then how about the scripture in 1 JOHN 3:8b.
For this purpose was the Son of God manifested, revealed, that He might destroy, loosen, undo, dissolve the works of the devil.

ISAIAH 60:1 Arise from the depression and prostration in which circumstances have kept you (change your position, your posture), shine, for your light has come and the glory of the Lord is risen upon you.

Is that enough to shout about! We are free. We are free. We are free.

Spend the rest of your day speaking, shouting (if you have a place to do that): I AM FREE! I AM FREE FROM THE CURSE OF THE LAW! THAT MEANS I AM FREE FROM SICKNESS AND DISEASE! I AM FREE FROM PAIN! I AM FREE FROM POVERTY! I AM FREE FROM SPIRITUAL DEATH! I AM A FREE MAN/WOMAN!
