MFM Devotional For Today 2023 MESSAGE:

Slaves who love their chains shall remain in bondage. Spiritual chains are terrible. It is gross stupidity to misjudge the evil wisdom of our foe, the devil. Satan will not hesitate to employ any weakness in our lives. The enemy has repackaged his chains to make them look innocent and attractive.

A man becomes a slave who loves his chains when he is tied to a destructive habit or addiction. Chain is a series of linked rings used for fastening or securing something or for pulling loads. Bondage is defined as the state of being a slave. So spiritual bondage is the state of being a spiritual slave. Who then is a slave? A slave is the property of the owner and he or she works without expecting payment. A slave is anyone who is under the power of a master to whom he belongs. A slave has no right, no choice, and cannot own anything.

Anything can happen to a slave; the master can decide to sell or keep him or her. Whatever he owns belongs to his master. Nobody cares if he or she dies or lives. Once the mark of slavery is established on the body of a slave, he becomes a slave forever (Exodus 21:2-7). According to Exodus 21:28-32, the life of a slave is worthless.

There are many factors that can make somebody to become a slave under bondage. Any form of immorality will enslave a man. Beloved, if you don’t want to be a slave in captivity, shun immorality. Every other sin which a man commits is outside the body but the immoral man sins against his own body.

Inherited evil foundation that is not properly dealt with will make someone to be in slavery. Any form of sin at all is a chain that will keep its victim in perpetual bondage. Therefore, run away from sin. Also, worldly pleasures are chains that keep people in bondage. The Bible warns that you should not love the world (1 John 2:15). Unbroken, inherited or acquired curses and covenants are chains that will keep their victims in bondage. Incomplete deliverance is also a chain that keeps people in bondage.

Beloved, take a personal decision today to set yourself free from anything that keeps you in bondage. Go for deliverance if need be. Remember that Jesus died for you to set you free. God bless you as you accept Him as your personal Lord and Saviour, in Jesus’ name.
