Redeemed from the
curse:
Galatians 3:13
13
Christ redeemed us from the curse of the Law, having become a curse for us—for
it is written, “Cursed is everyone who
hangs on a tree”—
People of the world are interested
in spells and curses. What they don’t realize is that they are under a curse.
They have not lived up to the Law, and therefore they are under a curse. They
might say, “We didn’t know anything about it.” Too bad … so sad. If you break a
traffic law, you are still liable for punishment even if you weren’t aware of
the law. We all deserved eternal punishment, but Jesus redeemed us from that
punishment by becoming a curse for us. He became that curse when they crucified
Him. When He died, we died. When He rose, we rose. We no longer live under a
curse, but rather a blessing. That doesn’t mean that we can live any way we
like. We need to walk in holiness as He walked to enjoy the full blessing of
our redemption.
If you could hear God speak to you, I believe this is what
He would say:
"My
children, there is no longer a curse for you. For the world, there is a curse;
a curse associated with Adam. He sinned, and all who follow in his footsteps
sin also. You are not of the world, and therefore, are not under the curse of
Adam. You have been redeemed also from the curse of the Law. You are no longer
under a curse of any type for you are under My Kingship and under My Domain.
You are under a Law of Freedom; not a freedom to do whatever you please, but
under a freedom to do what I please. It is not a hard thing to be under My
Freedom. My Freedom brings much joy and peace; for you will know exactly what
you should do and I will help you to do it. You are free, My children, and are
no longer under a curse.”
23. I have been
redeemed from the curse of the Law by Jesus and have been set free.
