Slavery. Something most people believe to have died a long time ago, but the sad truth is that it is still alive and well today.
As believers we carry the only hope - the Gospel is the only way to bring true freedom.

Isaiah 41:10
10)‘Do not fear [anything], for I am with you;
Do not be afraid, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you, be assured I will help you;
I will certainly take hold of you with My righteous right hand [a hand of justice, of power, of victory, of salvation].’

2 Corinthians 4:6-11 #TPT
For God, who said, “Let brilliant light shine out of darkness,” is the one who has cascaded his light into us—the brilliant dawning light of the glorious knowledge of God as we gaze into the face of Jesus Christ.
We are like common clay jars that carry this glorious treasure within, so that this immeasurable power will be seen as God’s, not ours.
Though we experience every kind of pressure, we’re not crushed. At times we don’t know what to do, but quitting is not an option.
We are persecuted by others, but God has not forsaken us. We may be knocked down, but not out.
We continually share in the death of Jesus in our own bodies so that the resurrection life of Jesus will be revealed through our humanity.
We consider living to mean that we are constantly being handed over to death for Jesus’ sake so that the life of Jesus will be revealed through our humanity.

Psalms 85:9-13 #TPT
For I know your power and presence shines on all your devoted lovers. Your glory always hovers over all who bow low before you.
Your mercy and your truth have married each other. Your righteousness and peace have kissed.
Flowers of your faithfulness are blooming on the earth. Righteousness shines down from the sky.
Yes, the Lord keeps raining down blessing after blessing, and prosperity will drench the land with a bountiful harvest.
For deliverance goes before him, preparing a path for his steps.

Romans 13:8-11 #TPT
Don’t owe anything to anyone, except your outstanding debt to continually love one another, for the one who learns to love has fulfilled every requirement of the law.
For the commandments, “Do not commit adultery, do not murder, do not steal, do not covet,” and every other commandment can be summed up in these words: “Love and value others the same way you love and value yourself.”
Love makes it impossible to harm another, so love fulfills all that the law requires.
To live like this is all the more urgent, for time is running out and you know it is a strategic hour in human history. It is time for us to wake up! For our full salvation is nearer now than when we first believed.

Psalms 32:1-5 #TPT
What bliss belongs to the one whose rebellion has been forgiven, those whose sins are covered by blood. What bliss belongs to those who have confessed their corruption to God! For he wipes their slates clean and removes hypocrisy from their hearts.
Before I confessed my sins, I kept it all inside; my dishonesty devastated my inner life, causing my life to be filled with frustration, irrepressible anguish, and misery.
The pain never let up, for your hand of conviction was heavy on my heart. My strength was sapped, my inner life dried up like a spiritual drought within my soul.
Pause in his presence
Then I finally admitted to you all my sins, refusing to hide them any longer. I said, “My life-giving God, I will openly acknowledge my evil actions.” And you forgave me! All at once the guilt of my sin washed away and all my pain disappeared!

Psalm 146:2
2)While I live I will praise the LORD;
I will sing praises to my God as long as I live.
Proverbs 16:32-33 #TPT
Do you want to be a mighty warrior? It’s better to be known as one who is patient and slow to anger. Do you want to conquer a city? Rule over your temper before you attempt to rule a city.
We may toss the coin and roll the dice, but God’s will is greater than luck.
#Bible #ThePassionTranslation
Proverbs 16:6-9 #TPT
You can avoid evil through surrendered worship and the fear of God, for the power of his faithful love removes sin’s guilt and grip over you.
When the Lord is pleased with the decisions you’ve made, he activates grace to turn enemies into friends.
It is better to have little with a heart that loves justice than to be rich and not have God on your side.
Within your heart you can make plans for your future, but the Lord chooses the steps you take to get there.

“The instruction of the Lord is perfect,
renewing one’s life;
the testimony of the Lord is trustworthy,
making the inexperienced wise.
The precepts of the Lord are right,
making the heart glad;
the command of the Lord is radiant,
making the eyes light up.”

North Koreans are starving - so the leadership is communicating in the way that they have seen gets the best response.
But there is another way....

The human heart is the most deceitful of all things, and desperately wicked. Who really knows how bad it is? But I, the Lord, search all hearts and examine secret motives. I give all people their due rewards, according to what their actions deserve.
— Jeremiah 17:9-10 NLT
Proverbs 15:3-4 #TPT
The eyes of the Lord are everywhere and he takes note of everything that happens. He watches over his lovers, and he also sees the wickedness of the wicked.
When you speak healing words, you offer others fruit from the tree of life. But unhealthy, negative words do nothing but crush their hopes.
