Singing with Inspiration – Lesson 11 Freedom in Christ
The first Bible text we open to on commencing our study this week, Gal 5:1 says “ It is for freedom that Christ has set us free …” (NIV) which brings us the following hymns: Hymn 292, “Jesus, I Come”, Hymn 345, “Christ Is the World’s True Light”, Hymn 460, “As Water to the Thirsty”, and Hymn 191, “Love Divine”. Gal 5:1 continues on: “ Stand firm, then ….” Hymn 610, “Stand Like the Brave” and Hymn 518, “Standing on the Promises” . Hymn 110, “God’s Free Mercy Streameth” is shown to us at the conclusion on Sunday’s study.

Dying to Overcome-Every day
And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. Galatians 5:24 NKJV While reading through Galatians again, the part of this passage about even our desires being crucified jumped out at me. I have studied with people who tell me that even though they stopped smoking, the desire to smoke always remains. One man told me, “I will always be a smoker. I just will always choose not to smoke.” That makes sense as we all have sinful flesh, but do not have to give in to the flesh
