The Spirit of Liberty

UV 317/10,000 Amazing Principles of the Uni-verse revealed verse by verse 2 Corinthians 3 v 17
2Co 3:17 Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty
The Spirit of liberty

It is said “ knowledge is power but wisdom is liberty.” This uni-verse both defines and describes what is wisdom. The Spirit of the Lord is wisdom. When we believe, repent and receive the Lord as our personal saviour, we are set free from the law of sin and death. We become truly “ free” of the spirit of bondage, the spirit of fear of death and the consequences of sin. The Spirit of the Lord inhabits our hearts and minds and bodies and we become “wise unto God”, though we may be considered foolish by fellow men.

The Spirit of the Lord removes the veils on our understanding. We begin to understand the Word of God as the Spirit of the Lord interprets it to us. The Spirit of the Lord is the spirit of adoption by which we can call God as “ Appa, Father.” The Spirit of the Lord quickens our minds that have been dulled by sin hitherto.
The Spirit of the Lord removes the spirit of fear and imparts to us power, love and a sound mind. The law of sin and death like the law of gravity had held us in our past as prisoners and earth-bound. Now, the spirit of the Lord like the law of aerodynamics enables us to escape that gravity and soar sky-wards to the very bosom of the Lord. Time, distance or eternity will no longer separate us from the Lord. The Spirit of the Lord will witness to our spirits that we are truly His children. We become ministers of the new testament. The law of the Lord is written on our hearts and minds. This new wisdom gives us abundant life, eternal life and liberty. The joy of salvation is restored to our souls. But, much of mankind being prisoners of sin and death, we must not be complacent that we have been set free. Our attitude ought to be that of freedom fighters, “ Lord, set our people free..”
