THE BELIEVER’S INDEPENDENCE DAY

On tomorrow July 4, 2021, the United States will celebrate its’ 245 Independence Day. It is the day we celebrate our Declaration of Independence from Britain, which took place on July 4, 1776. There will be parades, picnics, family outings, concerts, and fireworks on this day throughout America. Additionally, the world will see the many forms of celebration via the various media platforms.

Americans celebrate Independence Day once a year, but believers can daily commemorate our spiritual Independence Day. We were liberated from sin, Satan, and death on two important days.  First was the day that Jesus died, and then on the day, He rose from the grave.

Way back in the Garden of Eden, God declared our future independence to the serpent in the presence of Adam and Eve when He said. “I’m declaring war between you and the Woman, between your offspring and hers. He’ll wound your head, you’ll wound his heel” (MSG). It took the passing of 76 generations for this prophetic word to come to fruition, and when it did, humanity was truly set free.

Our nation was freed from Britain in 1776, but in 33 A.D.Jesus freed the world forever. He gave each one of us the opportunity to take advantage of His sacrifice and the ability to confess, declare and experience our greatest Independence Day.
