Daily Bread - September 11, 2004

But Jesus said unto her, Let the children first be filled: for it is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it unto the dogs. And she answered and said unto him, Yes, Lord: yet the dogs under the table eat of the children's crumbs.

You are free. I made you free by the truth. The spirit of bondage desires to enslave you and make you a prisoner of ignorance. Be not chained to ignorance. Be assured that I have made you free and liberated you in Christ Jesus. Be not controlled by men who use subtle weapons of self-righteousness and positions in this life to restrict others. Many are limited in liberty because of the doctrines of men and philosophies of this world. Obey those who have the rule over you, but do not submit yourselves to false leaders. You shall know them by their fruits. I have given you freedom. Now do not go back to the halls of bondage again. You served many years in the house of bondage. You were robbed in the house of bondage. By subtle schemes and false promises, you were held in quarters of oppression. I came and made you free by the truth. Now worship me in spirit and in truth. Know this of a truth, that even your worship in the house of bondage was not in vain. Your worship came unto me in sincerity and was received by me. I will show forth the fruit of your worship not many days hence. You shall know that I am a just God and not a respecter of persons.

I have given you the special rights of a citizen of heaven. Be not restricted in heavenly places, for the freedom of these places has been given, and none can retract their privileges. You do not need to resort to the tactics of a freedom fighter to gain your privileges. Do not resort to terrorist policies to hold on to your liberties. The battle is mine. I will repay. Go on to win the lost, and leave men and their schemes up to me. I will render to every man his just reward. I gave you sons and daughters. They were stolen from you. Now I will decide who gets who, for all sheep are mine. I am judging between you and your brethren. No advantages are given because of race and position. I am just. Now behold the swing of justice on your behalf.

I have not led you into another bondage house. You will not be vanquished or brought under the dominion of men. Many men are rebels in conquest of their own kingdoms using my name as their authority. Do not listen to these men, for they speak for themselves and not for me. I am not double-minded, neither am I unjust. The laws of my kingdom are right. The laws of men must be in subjection to the laws of God. The laws of many men are man-made. Be not in bondage to their laws. Many have been brought into captivity and conquered by man-made laws; therefore, making the law of liberty of non-effect. You have been emancipated from the dominion of man. You are the bondservant to me. I am your head. I have appointed men of love and honor in the governing positions in my kingdom. Come and follow me, and I will show you men of integrity, honor, and love. Refuse to serve under the slavery authored by men. I swore by oath to your father Abraham that you would be granted deliverance out of the hand of your enemies and that you might serve me without fear in holiness and righteousness. A light has been given to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death to guide your feet into the way of peace. I have sent you into a desert till your time comes. Wait here until I call you forth for the mission that you are appointed unto.

I have given you a highway, a way, the way of holiness. The unclean shall not pass over it, but it shall be for those, the wayfaring men, though fools shall not err therein. No lion shall be here, nor shall any ravenous beast go up thereon, it shall not be found here, but the redeemed shall walk here, and the ransomed of the Lord shall return and come to Zion with songs and everlasting joy upon their heads. They shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away. I shall save you with an everlasting salvation, and you shall not be ashamed, nor confounded, a world without end.

Amos 3: 7 - 8

Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets. The lion hath roared, who will not fear? The Lord GOD hath spoken, who can but prophesy?
