"You have been set free from sin and have
become slaves to righteousness."
(ROMANS 6:18)

Romans 6:15-23
When we follow Jesus Christ, we adopt a way of living life through Him. As His children, we are yoked to Him. We belong to Him. In our daily living and interaction with others we seek to model Jesus, our hearts overflowing with gratitude. Paul describes this new life in Christ. We are no longer mastered by sin but now are servants of the God of grace and love, devoting our lives to living for Him, emulating Him and His righteousness wherever we are.


Some years ago while I was training to be a radio
DJ, I learned from one of the best who had been a part of a national radio network. He was a Christ follower and brought his fine-tuned ability to Christian radio. I wanted to be like him and produce meaningful programs. I watched, listened, took notes, asked questions. Essentially, I was “yoked” to him through those months of training. Through his leading, our programs accomplished what we intended: honor Christ.


Jesus offers you Himself, His yoke, and it becomes the highest of honors to be attached to Him.
