Summary

As we enter the middle of our series on God’s promises, today we’re going to look at his promise of freedom. Every day this world tries to chain us to its ways, holding us down where God is trying to lift us up. But in Jesus, we’ve been offered total and complete freedom. And in the Spirit we’re offered a continual pathway to exercise that freedom. Whether it’s fear, lust, pride, or something else, God has real freedom for you today in his presence. May chains break today in light of God’s glorious grace.

Our Scripture for today comes from Galatians 5:1, and today's worship is Bye Bye Babylon by Elevation Worship.

Thanks so much for listening to today’s podcast on trusting God with your plans.

If in meeting with God today you realized a real struggle with trusting God with your plans, try picking one plan you have today and trusting him with it. Lay that plan down before it happens today, and ask him to guide you into the fullness of what he has for it. And pay attention to any ways it changes.

I hope God gives you a clearer sense of how you can trust him throughout your day today. May God bless you as you seek him.
