Do You Put Yourself in Bondage?

Mind Bondage

Are you your own trouble, your own despair, your own doubt and fear? Are you your own frustration? I see self-bondage so many times, and I want to cry to the person, “You are your own destruction! You are your own despair, your own doubt, your own fear, your own disobedience! You are your own trouble! The devil has convinced you that you cannot be free.” The indulged whine of self always drowns out the “Peace, be still” of Jesus.

The enemy is lying to you who are in mind bondage, telling you that you cannot think straight, that it is impossible to be all God wants you to be. You trust things you should not; you doubt that which you should be trusting—and you feel you cannot change. That’s what the devil wants—bondage, bondage, bondage.
