Summary
Today we’ll explore the experience of God’s freedom as it relates to our identity and what we believe about ourselves. Many of us have yet to truly taste the freedom available to us through the finished work of Christ. There is nothing else like it in the world. It is my prayer you are liberated today, and that your thinking toward yourself changes and in result changes your actions. Christ said his work was finished on the cross, and it’s about time we start living in the new reality he instated for us.
Our Scripture for today comes from Romans 6:1-4, and today's worship is Worth It All by First15 Worship feat. Magen Thurman.

We are so excited to share our latest worship song, Coming Through, featuring Jeremiah Brinkley! Check it out on the various streaming platforms here or over at our YouTube channel, here!

There are two things you and I need most: secure connection and unconditional love.
It’s impossible to live with confidence unless we have the sense of self that comes from secure connection with our heavenly Father. And it’s impossible to fully love ourselves and others unless we experience and trust in the unconditional love of the one who gave us life.
We pray our printed devotionals, Closer and Love, help people like you experience the connection and unconditional love available to you in God every morning. Everything changes when we live from a place of secure connection and unending love. Get your copy at supportfirst15.com!
