A helium balloon only has the power of flight, because of the helium that is inside of it. The only way the helium balloon isn’t free to fly is if it is tied to a heavy object.
We are like helium balloons.
We have that power inside of us to fly and be free (the power that is given to us by Christ Jesus), but we let things of the world hold us back and capture us.
It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.
Galatians 5:1 NIV
Jesus has liberated us on the cross! Let go of the things of this world that holds you back and fly in your freedom with Him by your side.
Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.
2 Corinthians 3:17 NIV
So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.
John 8:36 NIV
We have freedom, because of Him.
