Tuesday 3/13/11 Deuteronomy 22-24; Galatians 4 - Generations of Freedom
S- Galatians 4:25 Message, It corresponds with what is now going on in Jerusalem - a slave life, producing slaves as offspring.
O - Paul is discussing the idea that Sarah and Hagar, and their offspring, represent two different covenants - the Covenants of Law and Grace. "The two births represent two ways of being in relationship with God."
A - I love the wording here of a slave life producing slaves as offspring. If there is one strong motivation for pressing in for deliverance from a stronghold, it is to prevent it being passed on to your children and grandchildren. This was a HIGH motivation for me around my struggle with compulsive eating - I was at least the third generation with this problem and I desperately wanted our two kids to not have the same emotional pain that I had lived with for 30 years. Thank you, Lord, that neither of them struggle with this!! The line has been drawn in the sand.
P - Lord, set us free from our slavery so that generations to come will be free!! Amen!
