Devotional Day 1 || Freedom in Christ

The apostle Paul reminds us that in Christ, we are freed from the bondage of man-made religious rules and regulations. Today, reflect on areas where you might be clinging to self-imposed standards or traditions rather than embracing the freedom Christ offers. Are there "do's and don'ts" in your spiritual life that aren't rooted in Scripture but in human expectations? Remember, true holiness comes from a heart transformed by God's love, not from following a list of external behaviors. Ask God to reveal any areas where you're living by self-made religion rather than grace, and pray for the courage to embrace the freedom Christ has won for you.
