Why would God allow us to feel trapped on earth in order to set us free and find freedom?
First off, we are not meant for this world — praise God for that!! Then, sometimes, God allows us to be put in a prison of containment because, within that prison, our actions are put in a vault. Within a prison we can not act as we want or of our own free will. Within that prison we have to reflect on who we are, not what we are or what we do.
It’s in a prison like mindset, or environment, that we must drop to our knees and seek Jesus with every ounce of faith and hope we have. It’s in a prison that we gain strength to break every chain!!
Father God, let my identity forever rest within you. May the prisons I have overcome on earth make me a stronger leader and warrior to run the race of your kingdom. May I forever be known as your daughter — an ambassador for your kingdom.
In Jesus name, I pray we all find this type of God-ordained freedom. AMEN!!
Imperfectly Yours,
Katie
