Galatians 5:1
It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.

Today, we pause to celebrate the freedom we have in America—a freedom that was hard-fought and paid for with great sacrifice. It’s a gift we should never take lightly. But even greater than our national freedom is the freedom we have in Christ. And just like with any true freedom, it came at the highest price: the life of Jesus Himself.

1 Peter 2:16
Live as free people, but do not use your freedom as a cover-up for evil; live as God’s slaves.

Living in a free country gives people the opportunity to do many unique and incredible things. But with that freedom also comes the temptation to use it for selfish or even harmful purposes. But God never intended for freedom to be a license for evil. True freedom isn’t about doing whatever we want—it’s about living in a way that honors God and leads others toward Him.

Acts 13:38-39
Therefore, my friends, I want you to know that through Jesus the forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you. Through him everyone who believes is set free from every sin, a justification you were not able to obtain under the law of Moses.

The law was given to God’s people through Moses, but it was never something anyone could fully keep. Until Jesus came. He did what no one else could—He fulfilled the entire law without fault. And by doing so, He set us free from its demands.

Romans 8:1-2
Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death.

When you’re guilty of doing something wrong, typically you don’t feel free from that feeling until you confess because that confession releases you from the grip of guilt. That’s exactly what happened when you gave your life to Jesus. In that moment, you were released from the law of sin and death. You stepped out of condemnation and into the grace of Christ.

John 8:36
So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.

It’s easy to take for granted the freedom we have in America. Most of us have never known life without those freedoms we enjoy every day. Yet, each one of us has been bound by the chains of sin, guilt, and shame. And no matter how free we appeared on the outside, our soul remained captive until the Savior graciously stepped in and set us free.

James 3:18
Peacemakers who sow in peace reap a harvest of righteousness.

Farmers love a good harvest. After all the sowing, weeding, and tending to the crops, the day you finally get to gather what you’ve grown is deeply satisfying. And it’s the same with your heart. When you choose to plant seeds of peace—through kindness, forgiveness, and grace—you’re promised a bountiful harvest.
