The chains of the law
The book of Galatians speaks intensively about the chains which “the Law” binds us with. The Law of the Old Testament was very strict & rugged, there is no way possible anyone could follow the Law perfectly.
Galatians 2:16b points out
“no one can be made right with God by following the law.”
and quickly follows up with verse 21b
“if the law could make us right with God, then Christ’s death would be useless.”
Christ’s death freed us from the Law, it gave us the grace we needed in order to be in right standing in the eyes of the Father.
Many will question, why the Law was even given if it is so strict and not life giving?
Galatians 3:19-20 answers the very question
“It was given to show that the wrong things people do are against God’s will. And it continued until the special descendant, who had been promised, came. The law was given through angels who used Moses for a mediator[a] to give the law to people.20 But a mediator is not needed when there is only one side, and God is only one.”
The Law was given to keep us all in line, but now we have a direct connection to the Father through the Spirit. The Spirit can now be our guide instead of the Law.
The Law cannot bring life, only the Spirit of God and a relationship with him can bring about everlasting life.
One of the perks of having a relationship with Christ is the inheritance we are now entitled to receive. Abraham was the first to receive an inheritance from God, and “all who believe as Abraham believed are blessed just as Abraham was.”
Those of us whom are in Christ are “all Children of God“. As a child, we are to receive blessings and an inheritance, the same blessings which God gave and promised to Abraham and his descendant.
Repeatedly Paul states in Galatians whom we are in Christ. We are his Children! We are his descendants! We are those whom receive the blessings and inheritance!
Paul even goes as far as comparing us to Issac! We are to God, what Issac was to Abraham & Sarah.
If we could fully grasp the blessing God has allotted to us, our lives would be changed! There is a freedom that comes with the understanding of who we are in Christ. The blessings are waiting there for us, we simply have to ask and believe.
I want to encourage everyone to claim the blessings God has waiting for them. May we all received a deeper level of understanding about whom we are. May our eyes be opened! May the spirit of deception be removed from our lives. Command the lies of the enemy to cease! Listen intensely for the voice of the Lord, and follow him. He has blessing waiting for you.
