No longer Bound

PRAISE JESUS CHRIST!

For God so loved the world, that He gave his only begotten Son; That whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. {17} For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. - SAINT JOHN 3:16-17

Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonied, and rose up in haste, and spake, and said unto his counsellers, Did not we cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? They answered and said unto the king, True, O king.  He answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God. - DANIEL 3:24-25

JESUS GREETINGS Family,

     When the three Hebrew captives, Hananiah, Mishael, Azariah {Shadrach, Meshech, and Abed-nego} were thrown into the midst of a fiery furnace, simply, because they refused to bow down to an idol set up by an unruly king.  It appeared that they would meet their Maker in that they would not have survived or subdued the fiery furnace ordeal.  However, these three loyal and courageous, possibly teen-age young men, literally did meet their Maker, The LORD AND SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST, for the HOLY SCRIPTURES State that King Nebuchadnezzar rose up when he thought the three young lads should have lost their lives, and was astonished when he so these three servants of the MOST HIGH GOD "no longer bound" walking in the midst of the fire with a fourth MAN, saying "and the fourth looks like the Son of God {Daniel 3:25}.

     When I first titled this weblog sermonette, it was originally entitled 'In the Fire'.  However, as I began to write this particular article, I believe Our CRUCIFIED AND RESURRECTED LORD AND GOD, JESUS CHRIST {SAINT JOHN 20:28}, gave me another title "No Longer Bound".  It is important to understand the significance that these three men were thrown into the fiery furnace bond, I believe hand and foot.  The HOLY BIBLE DECRESS That they fell down in the midst of the fiery furnace.  This shows to me that no matter how hot a certain situation seems to be, whether we are undergoing Spiritual, mental, physical, or emotional turmoil or persecution in our lives, there is always hope in our placing our faith in our LORD AND SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST.  

{19} Remembering mine affliction and my misery, the wormwood and the gall.

{20} My soul hath them still in remembrance, and is humbled in me.

{21}This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope.

ח

{22} It is of the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.

{23} They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.

{24} The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him. - JEREMIAH 3:19-24

This hope is always seen, even in the lower parts of our souls.  Sometimes, we feel as if all hope is gone, simply because we feel that we have messed up too much for CHRIST JESUS to still love us.  However, this is a lie and trap of the devil and it couldn't be further from the Truth of the Gospel {GOOD NEWS} of JESUS CHRIST.  

JESUS PROMISES to never leave or forsake us {HEBREWS 13:5}.  When we have gone astray in some manner, whether backsliding or in the giving up of hope, THE HOLY BIBLE DECREES IN PSALM 119:176 - 

I have gone astray like a lost sheep; seek thy servant; for I do not forget thy commandments. - PSALM 119:176

THE HOLY BIBLE Also Encourages those who have lost hope with these words,

   {19} My brethren, if any among you strays from the truth and one turns him back, {20} let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save his soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins. -JEREMIAH 5:19-20

   Then I said, I am cast out of thy sight; yet I will look again toward thy holy temple. JONAH 2:4

The key to getting up again is to cast our proverbial nets on the right side of the ship {SAINT JOHN 21:6}, or as Elijah the Tishbite instructed his servant, "to go again {1 KINGS 18:43}"

And said to his servant, Go up now, look toward the sea. And he went up, and looked, and said, There is nothing. And he said, Go again seven times. - 1 KINGS 18:43

     I can assure you, because, I know first hand that it is not easy.  However, we serve a FAITHFUL GOD, JESUS CHRIST, Who WILL Help us as we continue to walk by faith and not by sight {2 CORINTHIANS 5:7}.  Remember, HE will NEVER leave or forsake us {HEBREWS 13:5}.  Simply, ask for forgiveness, seek HIM in reading HIS WORD DAILY, and Rest in the PROVISION OF THE HOLY LOVE, THE FATHER HAS GRANTED UNTO us, BY WAY OF THE PRECIOUS DEATH, AND RESURRECTION OF HIS BELOVED SON, JESUS CHRIST. "Little children keep yourselves from idols. Amen. {1 JOHN 5:21}
