This liberty that Christ has won for us makes us free to claim heaven's charter—the Bible. Here's a choice passage, believer: "When you pass through the rivers, I will be with you." You are free to that! Here's another: "The mountains may depart and the hills be removed, but my kindness will not depart from you." You are free to that! You are a welcome guest at the table of promises.
Scripture is a never-failing treasury filled with boundless stores of grace. It is the bank of heaven. You may draw from it as much as you please, without let or hindrance. Come in faith, and you are welcome to all covenant blessings. There is not a promise in the Word which shall be withheld from you.
In the depths of tribulation, let this freedom comfort you. Amidst waves of distress, let it cheer you. When sorrows surround you, let it be your solace. This is your Father's love-token, and you are free to it at all times.
You are also free to the throne of grace. It is the believer's privilege to have access at all times to his heavenly Father. Whatever your desires, your difficulties, your wants—you are at liberty to spread them all before him. It matters not how much you have sinned; you may ask and expect pardon. It signifies nothing how poor you are; you may plead his promise that he will provide all things needful.
You have permission to approach his throne at all times—in midnight's darkest hour or in noontide's most burning heat. Exercise your right, O believer, and live up to your privilege! You are free to all that is treasured up in Christ—wisdom, righteousness, sanctification, and redemption. It matters not what your need is, for there is fullness of supply in Christ, and it is there for you.
O what freedom is yours! Freedom from condemnation! Freedom to the promises! Freedom to the throne of grace! And at last, freedom to enter heaven!
Closing Prayer
Today, stop living like a spiritual pauper when you have unlimited access to heaven's treasury. Whatever you're facing, there's a promise with your name on it.
