Humanity's spirit yearns for liberation. But for many, pursuing it only increases their level of servitude.
King Solomon knew that freedom only exists when one is honoring God and His Word, even though he didn't use the word freedom in Proverbs 16. In contrast, people who disobey God's truth end themselves in servitude. Practice of humility, trust, cautious speech, and self-control lead to liberty (vv. 19–24). However, individuals who are subject to intentional disobedience, pride, arrogance, conflict, and malicious trouble-making are invariably made slaves through bondage (vv. 18, 27, and 30).
Do you desire freedom? If you adhere to My word, you are truly My disciples, said Jesus. The truth will set you free, and you'll know the truth (John 8:31-32). The only way to truly be free is through Jesus.
True freedom comes from accepting God's will rather than from doing things your way. Whoever chooses to live for God every day has such freedom!
But those who take a different path are bound in bonds of servitude.
