Hanging on For Dear Life Berni Dymet Luke 4:18 He has sent me to proclaim release to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to let the oppressed go free... Something that I’ve noticed is that sometimes, we’re doing something that’s wrong or destructive, or we have a narrow, angry mindset about something – and we just want to hang onto it for dear life. You know what I’m talking about it. It’s irrational – but we end up like a dog with a bone and we just won’t let go. And those things end up ruining not just our lives – but the lives of the people around us. You know, Jesus said “I have come to set the captives free”. But so often we want Him to set us free from our circumstances, or from other people, or from our financial debt, that we forget that the biggest thing we need setting free from is ourselves. Jesus came to set the captives free – that’s you and that’s me. Probably right now, He’s nudging you in your Spirit about something specific. Can I encourage you, open that thing up – whatever it is – open it up to Him. Don’t hang on to it anymore. Let Him set you free.
