The Wings Of Freedom!

 

Birds generally symbolize freedom, transcendence, and the link between the earthly and spiritual realms.

They symbolize freedom because a bird flying in the open is not confined.

At every height and level in the skies above there is more than enough space to fly.

Birds are wonderful and beautiful creations of God.

Even the Spirit's nature is associated with the manner gentle manner of a dove.

Today, the white dove is used as the major representation of God's Spirit.

White doves or release pigeons are associated with peace, purity and love which are divine virtues.

No wonder there's a birdlike dimension to a number of heavenly creatures,- many angels have wings.

God Himself has an eagle dimension and identifies with qualities of the eagle in scripture (books of Deuteronomy, Ezekiel & Revelation).

Jesus is the great Eagle on whose wings He carried the children of Israel.

No wonder the Israelites survived the harsh wilderness and their enemies, while journeying to the promised land.

The glory of birds is in their ability to fly.

Wings make them fly.

The wings of birds is perhaps their most fascinating and unique feature.

Their wings are the reason they can defy gravity and stay in the air for a considerable period of time.

Their wings are the reason they're not limited to the terrestrial.

A dead bird cannot fly.

You are of more value than a bird.

You are alive to enjoy the kind of liberty God gives and Christ paid for.

May your God purchased freedom take on wings and manifest for you!

Bird wings represent freedom.

Money according to the scriptures can take on wings and fly away.

It is living things that can fly, the dead don't fly.

A dead bird cannot fly.

If money can fly away from us, it also means money can fly towards us, or back at us if it has flown away from us.

That suggests to me money is living & money is spiritual.

May your financial freedom take on wings and come to you!

Wings are used for motion, for movement.

Wings represent progress.

The wings of flying birds help keep them alive, they are able to flee from predators.

May you escape every harm and every enemy!

In the book of Revelation we read of a glorious woman who is a "sign"

The enemy tried to destroy her and the child she was to birth.

But she escaped!

God helped her by giving her 'wings' and she flew away to a place of protection and provision prepared for her.

'Wings' help us get to the place God has prepared for us.

May we 'fly' on the wings of the Spirit!

May God keep you alive!

It is the living that can make progress.

May progress take on wings and fly in your direction!

Wings help birds connect the earth and the heavens (skies).

May you be connected to your inheritance, your blessings in the heavenly realms and most importantly God!

May you be connected to Truth,

May destiny, purpose, blessings, grace, progress and righteousness take on wings and fly in your direction!

Be free!

Freedom, Your Right

There is a day called International Human Rights day!

Human rights is basically people's rights to be free, and enjoy freedoms that give them a chance and human dignity.

Whether all countries and people live by human rights laws which all nations should uphold is a different matter.

Whether you're fighting for individual freedoms or freedom on a national scale, freedom is worth fighting for.

A hero of democracy in my home country Nigeria was once quoted to have said "the longer the road to freedom, the sweeter the fruits of victory"

Freedom has a road and path to it.

Freedom is victory.

Freedom is a fruit.

Freedom is sweet.

It is a sweet fruit.

It is the end result or outcome of what has often been a bumpy road, a difficult path to liberation.

Freedom will require a push, it may require a pull, but the key to freedom is to keep going and not give up.

Freedom has a taste, it is sweet to the soul.

You never really value that which is sweet until you've tasted that which is sour or bitter.

Those who have tasted the bitterness of bondage appreciate the sweetness of freedom.

Those who have experienced darkness value light.

Those who have been in the pit will treasure the palace.

Those who have been homeless will appreciate the blessing of a home.

Those who grew up without the comfort of a loving family will treasure the blessing of family life.

Those who have been down will not take for granted the helping hand that's lifted them up.

May the treasures, thrill, sweetness, and beauty of freedom be yours.

Jesus Christ died that you may have and experience them.

Be blessed!

Journey To Freedom

 

On the journey to freedom, as you get closer to the light of freedom shining at the distance, things might get tougher.

The departure of the children of Israel from Egypt in the Biblical account from the book of Exodus is a real story of freedom.

Pharaoh did not want the Israelites free because they were useful to him as slaves.

The enemy and your enemies don't want you free because they feel its to their benefit if you remain as you are, but they are mistaken; you will not be bound because God doesn't just want you free but He paid the price for your freedom.

The journey to freedom may be tough but I'd like to encourage you not to give up.

It is very likely you have almost reached the light at the end of the dark tunnel, that is why it's getting tougher to continue the journey.

You must continue to seek freedom, you can't give up now.

You've come too far from where you started from.

There's no going back, there's no looking back, there's no giving up now.

Pharaoh couldn't stop the children of Israel from being free for God wanted them free.

The enemy and your enemies cannot stop you from being free for God wants you free.

Pharaoh is symbolic of Satan in the book of Exodus account.

Moses is symbolic of Jesus Christ in that true life story.

Moses shows up in Egypt which is Pharaoh's territory to ensure the children of Israel get their freedom.

Jesus Christ showed up from heaven in this earthly plane to ensure we are free from the enemy's grip.

As Moses showed up for the Israelites freedom, Pharaoh increased their workload and punished them the more.

When deliverance is near challenges increase.

The attacks against you may have increased, it's a distraction.

Strange warfare may have risen up from strange quarters against you, it's a tactic to make you give up.

Maintain your focus.

Look ahead.

The future is bright.

Can't you see it?

See your freedom, see your future.

That's where you should be, that's where you will get to.

Keep walking, keep running, keep taking steps.

Keep moving, keep going.

You will get there.

With each day, hour, minute, and second that goes by you are getting closer to your future, your freedom.

May God direct, order, lead, and guide your steps.

You can and must make it!

Kingdom Freedom

 

Freedom is found in God's presence.

Freedom begins to manifest in the life of the individual who makes it a regular habit to go into God's presence.

Freedom is activated by God's Spirit, it happens in God's presence for where the Spirit of the Lord is there is liberty!

Freedom is part of our birthright and inheritance..

Through God, we are within our rights to seek and seize opportunities. Its part of our freedom.

We are free through the Lord to cultivate and practice the presence of God.

As we practice and cultivate the presence of God we become better positioned by the Spirit of God to see opportunities.

The kingdom of God within the believer is God's presence in the believer.

There is freedom in the kingdom within us.

The Spirit leads, He can lead us into our God given opportunities.

The Spirit opens our eyes, He can open the eyes of our understanding and our spiritual eyes to see the opportunities He has for us in this new year.

The year is still young, see it as another God given opportunity.

It is an opportunity to get it right where we got it wrong last year, it's another eight Months to pursue freedom through the Spirit of God who sets free, we have eight Months ahead of us for this year to receive bigger and better things from the Lord.

It's another chance to correct our wrongs, achieve our targets and start afresh.

I will use this opportunity to wish you and yours a happy, blessed and prosperous rest of the year.

Created To Be Free

 

The U.S President Joe Biden bestowed the Presidential Medal of Freedom on a group of recipients, including a film star I like very much, Michael J. Fox.

The Presidential Medal of Freedom is the highest civilian honor in the U.S, Michael J. Fox was honored with this medal as a "world renowned advocate for Parkinson's disease research"

That medal should remind us that it is an honor to be free.

Freedom brings honor for it is the free man that can contribute and whose contribution will be regarded.

Humanity is created for freedom and that is why anything associated with liberty/freedom is regarded as valuable.

Human beings and animals are happiest when they are free, they look more beautiful, fulfilled and natural when free.

Consider the urge our pet dogs have for a walk and how happy they are in an open space and their excitement when they are unleashed in our gardens or at the park. The joy!

Freedom brings joy, especially if a person or animal has been incarcerated for so long.

Many animals are not meant to be confined, they are better in the wild where they are free, they are created to be free.

How much more you?

You are of more value than any animal, you are created to be free.

You are created to be like God in many respects, that is how you are meant to function.

It's unnatural for human beings to be bound or enslaved irrespective of race, nationality, tribe, language or skin color.

Jesus the Christ likened his followers to sheep because of the ability of sheep to follow shepherds, they listen to the shepherd's voice as the shepherd leads them in the best way and path for them.

We are meant to and designed to follow the Shepherd- Jesus the Christ!

Shepherds lead the sheep to the place of freedom and safety.

Isn't that what you really want, to be safe and free?

Sin incarcerates.

The illustration of Jesus likening his followers to sheep and He being their Shepherd depicts freedom and safety for the sheep (his followers).

The shepherd leads the sheep to where the sheep will find pasture, they are free to go out and come in.

The U.S is a country associated with freedom, one of her greatest attributes.

Unfortunately not much can be said of her being the safest place to live going by happenings there and information we get from the news and media outlets.

Our freedom and safety is in Jesus Christ and His kingdom.

Free To Create!

 

When you are free your creativity can flourish.

The first attribute of God we see from the scriptures is creativity.

God in whose image and likeness we are originally created is a creative being.

He spoke and creation came into existence!

The many universes, the many heavenly systems, our solar system, the stars, each planet, and their moons were creatively spoken into existence by God.

God is sovereign and free to create.

Creativity could be expressed by the Creator making creation a product of the Creators creativity through the Creators freedom.

Freedom makes it possible for us to express our ideas!

You have to be free.

You are more useful to yourself and the world when you're free.

There are ideas, potential, gifts and strengths within you the world needs and your fellow man will benefit from when you are free.

You can't be limited, caged, resisted and chained and expect the best to come out of you.

The best comes out of us when we are free, and we need to be free to bring the best out of us.

The enemy wants you tied down, Jesus came to destroy His works!

Our Lord saved the day!

He set us free.

Enjoy your freedom.

Go forth and create!

In freedom bring forth your creativity.

From Warefare To Freedom

 

Warfare often precedes freedom.

While your freedom is to your benefit, it is to the loss of those who want you enslaved.

It's a fact that freedom doesn't come without a fight.

History proves this.

Whether its colonized countries fighting for their independence, countries rich in natural resources protecting their land and resources from invaders, or getting justice in oppressive systems where laws and policies have created imbalanced societies, a fight is required.

Many fight to get out of poverty in societies where level playing fields are absent and the right opportunities seem scarce.

Human greed is often the reason man seeks the enslavement of his fellow man.

We want that which another has been blessed with by the Creator.

Greed stems from selfishness and it has often evolved into wickedness.

Selfishness has its roots in our fallen human nature,.

This creates another battle in itself, an inner kind of battle.

A battle of choices- choosing right or wrong, good or evil.

This internal battle is one everyone has to fight and many lose this battle for humanity doesn't have the power in herself to set herself free from her own nature and the outcome of its course.

We fight to be free from ourselves and from those who choose to be our enemies, we fight to be free from man made labels which are not the truth about us, we fight to be free mentally which means we resist deception.

Deception is an enemy and a big part of our warfare.

Deception enslaves and it's a tactic of our archenemy, our real enemy. It manifests in traditions, cultures, philosophies and belief systems.

Deception can manifest as tangible realities, even in situations and circumstances.

Don't be deceived and don't stay deceived.

We can't win these battles on our own and in ourselves.

The enemy has eaten deep into the fibre of this world and its systems.

There's the Way out, there's Truth, there's a Helper.
