You’re Not a Slave to Fear
Empowered: The Holy Spirit in the Life of the Believer devotional series
“For you have not received a spirit of slavery leading to fear again, but you have received a spirit of adoption as sons by which we cry out, ‘Abba! Father!’” — Romans 8:15 (NASB1995)
Fear shouts. Adoption whispers.
The world wants you to live in anxiety, insecurity, and pressure—but the Spirit you’ve received calls you family. That’s your identity. Not failure. Not pressure. Not fake perfection.
In Christ, you’re adopted, not abandoned.
Challenge:
What fear has been trying to define you? Talk to God about it today. Cry out “Abba, Father,” and ask the Spirit to remind you who you are.
Prayer:
Father, I confess the fears I’ve carried. Thank You for reminding me I’m Yours. I don’t have to live like a slave. I’m Your child. Amen.

I’m a follower of Christ, learning daily to walk the narrow path laid out in His Word. Through Rooted & Raised: Anchoring Women & Children in Christ, I simply seek to point others back to Scripture, tested by the Holy Spirit, lived out in faith, and anchored in truth.
● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
