Made free! Made free! O captive

English508

Made free! Made free! O captive!
Bound by the law of sin,
The law of life in Spirit
Will quicken you within.
And counting on the Spirit,
His life shall now control
The members of your body,
The portals of your soul.

Made free! Made free in Jesus:
For crucified with Him,
From center to circumf’rence,
He breaks the power of sin.
No longer act in body
As if it had no “law”;
His “law of life” must govern
All that ran wild before.

Made free! Made free in Jesus:
Deep planted in His death,
He liberates His life pow’r,
And breathes His Spirit’s breath.
Then waxing strong in spirit,
With force of quickening life;
The soul and body governed,
Its members cease from strife!

Made free! Made free in Jesus:
Joined to the Risen One,
By conflict prayer you triumph,
And claim His victory won.
Freed with His glorious freedom,
Above the darkness rife;
For now the law of sin and death
Is conquered by His life.

Meditating to Turn the Word into Prayer

___________________

When we are ready to enjoy God through prayer, we should be calm, call our entire being back to our spirit, and touch the Lord. Spontaneously, we may utter a prayer, saying, “Lord, as I read Your Word, open it to me. ” After praying, we can then read. We may read Romans 8:1-2 , which says, “There is now then no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life has freed me in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and of death. ” We should not read these verses quickly. These two verses are sufficient for us to muse on. We should not muse merely on the words themselves; rather, our musing should be based on these words. In other words, we muse through and by God’s Word. We can muse on the Lord, His redemption, His indwelling, our union with Him, and His being life to us. We should read the verses again, not merely with our mind but by absorbing the riches in the Word with our spirit. We may say, “There is no more condemnation in Christ. How sweet it is to be in Christ! In Adam I was condemned and destined to die, but now I am in Christ. I am a person in Christ! In Christ there is no more condemnation. Therefore, in Christ there is no death! ” After musing and meditating in this way, we will spontaneously be filled with thanksgiving and praising. We may say, “Lord, I praise You that I am in Christ. I am in You. Thank You! There is no condemnation in You. ” It is difficult to determine whether this is reading or praying. Within the praying there is reading, and within the reading there is praying. It is our prayer, but the words are from Romans 8:1 . This is to pray-read and read-pray. The two are mingled as one. The best way to absorb, eat, and drink God is to mingle our prayer and our reading in this way.
