My Shackles Are Gone

There is nothing more freeing than knowing that Christ has broken every chain that once held us captive. "My shackles are gone, my spirit is free" is more than just a lyric—it is a declaration of the freedom we have in Jesus. Sin, fear, and shame no longer have a hold on us because His sacrifice has set us free. True freedom isn’t found in the world; it is found in surrendering to Jesus Christ.

John 8:36 declares, “And if the Son shall set you free, you will indeed be free” (TLB). The moment we accept His love and forgiveness, the weight of our past is lifted. We no longer have to live in bondage—we are free to walk in joy, peace, and purpose.

Step into the freedom God has given you. Live boldly, knowing that nothing can hold you back when Christ has set you free.
