THE BONDAGE OF SLAVERY
5TH , AUGUST 2022
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 1 Chronicles 19-21; 1 Corinthians 1:18-2:1-5;
Psalm 91:1-8
FIRE SCRIPTURE: Romans
6:15-22
15 What then? shall we sin, because we are not
under the law, but under grace? God forbid.
16 Know ye not, that to whom ye yield
yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of
sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?
17 But God be thanked, that ye were the
servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which
was delivered you.
18 Being then made free from sin, ye became
the servants of righteousness.
19 I speak after the manner of men because of
the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to
uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members
servants to righteousness unto holiness.
20 For when ye were the servants of sin, ye
were free from righteousness.
21 What fruit had ye then in those things
whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death.
22 But now being made free from sin, and
become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end
everlasting life.
MEMORY VERSE:
“Know ye
not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to
whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?” – Romans

THE MESSAGE:
The bondage of slavery is a painful reality of the times we are
in now. Who is a slave? A slave is a person who is the legal property of
another and is forced to obey his owner without any choice. A slave is a person
who is completely subservient to a dominating influence. Then the question can
be asked: what is slavery? It is the condition of being enslaved, held, or
owned as human property. It is to be in bondage to a superior power or
authority.

A lot of people these days have been enslaved by forces
seemingly greater than them. In fact, the devil is using as many means as
possible these days to enslave people. It is disheartening that even many
believers are victims of his enslavement. However, there are some facts you
need to know about slaves, either spiritual or physical. Slaves can be lawful
or unlawful (Isaiah 49:24).

Slaves can be homeborn or outborn (Jer. 2:14). Slaves do not
have their own will. You are a slave to whoever you obey and whatever you serve
(Rom. 6:16). A debtor is a slave to his creditor. One deep secret every
Christian should know is that any time the devil is gaining the upper hand in
your affairs, he is working out slavery. My concern here is to let you know
that one can be enslaved spiritually and be fed from the dustbin of life till
he recovers through the mercy of God.
Meanwhile, any time our relationship with our Maker – the
Almighty God is broken, we are sold into slavery. And this relationship can be
broken by sin, evil covenant, ungodly sexual intimacy, evil dedication,
idolatrous practices, indiscipline, stealing, shedding of blood, and all other
manifestation of the works of the flesh as listed in Galatians 5:19-21.

How do you escape the bondage of slavery? You must submit the
totality of your life to Jesus. You must renounce all past involvements in
satanism, idol worship, traditionalism and sinful habits. You must restitute
all materials of the devil in your possession. You must reverse and.
PRAYER POINTS:

1. Jesus Christ, the Yoke Breaker, break every evil chain of
slavery binding me to problems, in the name of Jesus.
2. Every satanic agent pushing me to the wrong person, catch fire,
in the name of Jesus.

Let all slavery in my life be abolished by the blood of Jesus, in the name of
Jesus.
EVENING
4. Every chain of
darkness tying me down and preventing me from moving forward, catch fire, in
the name of Jesus.
5. Any slave master
that says he will not let me go unless he denies me of my promotion, be roasted
by fire, in the name of Jesus.
6. Let the power of
the Most High that took the Israelites out of Egypt take me out of slavery, in
the name of Jesus.
7. By the power that
brought Jonah out of the belly of the fish, O God pull me out of the hand of
the strongman, in Jesus Name, Amen!
