A Daily Devotional About times of imprisonment… Hebrews 13:3 Remember those in prison as
if you were their fellow prisoners, and those who are mistreated as if you
yourselves were suffering. (NIV) Many persons are prisoners. Some people are real prisoners behind prison bars. Other people are prisoners behind the bars of mental, spiritual, or physical circumstances. Perhaps you are a prisoner because of your life circumstance. Perhaps you are a prisoner for Christ because you are standing firm against sin, darkness, evil, pain, or suffering. You may be in a place where you do not want to be, doing something you do not like to do, in a circumstance from which there seems to be no escape. You may not have any way of getting out of your imprisoned life on your own. However, there is a power waiting to give you freedom. The power giving you freedom is the power of Christ's love. Christ's power of love can give you freedom in the middle of your imprisonment. Christ's power of love can give you a freedom even when you are in chains and shackles. No matter how confined you are, and no matter how bleak things may seem at any moment, the love of God gives you a new vision, a new hope, and a life full of promise. |
