"Unbridled Freedom"

September 27, 2023 Daily Devotion: "Unbridled Freedom" Hebrews 10:23-25 New International Version 23 Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful. 24 And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, 25 not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching. Honesty about your faults allows you the opportunity to hear right counsel and encouragement. This will help you do and become all that God has in mind for you. If you have to give an account to somebody, you’re more likely to be honest and transparent. Accounting for the way you use money, time, or talent makes you careful not to waste those resources. As children of God, we are free in Christ, but an accountability partner helps us stay balanced and guards us from taking liberties. Another person can often point out what we cannot see in ourselves. If you give an account of the places you go and the people you spend time with, you’ll be more likely to make wise choices. Unbridled freedom may seem like a great blessing, but it can be a recipe for disaster. Do you give an account to anybody for the way you handle money, time, and relationships? If not, consider inviting a trustworthy Christian to fill that role. Taking this step reveals a heart that longs to please God.
