Romans 6:14 New International Version (NIV)
14 For sin shall no longer be your master, because
you are not under the law, but under grace.
As we called on Jesus name in baptism and trusted him to be
our Savior, we died to sin. In this death, we die to dying and pass from death
to life because of our faith in Jesus and in God's power (John 5:24; Col.
2:12). Our life is joined to Jesus, and his glorious future becomes our own (Col.
3:1-4). We are not under law, but grace. Let's respond to the gift of grace
with passion and with zeal to be holy. Let's open ourselves to the transforming
work of the Holy Spirit, who changes us to be like Jesus (2 Cor. 3:18). We are
grace-children. We are not in bondage to sin, but liberated by grace to be all
that God has made us to be — his craftsmanship (Eph. 2:1-10). Sin will not be
our master!
Thought for today:
Am I held and bound by anything?
