Jesus delivers us from the power of self.
"Who gave Himself for our sins, that He might deliver us from this present evil world,"
Jesus takes away the fear of condemnation we justly deserve;
and puts in us the peace of justification by faith in Christ alone.
He sets us free from the hypocrisy of self-righteous religion,
and leads us into the freedom of new life in Christ.
He brings us out from the bondage of fleshly works;
and lets the fruit of His Spirit produce the character of Jesus in us.
He lifts us from being enemies of God;
to place us in the royal household
so we approach God as our Abba Father.
He removes a heart that gratifies itself;
and He puts in us a heart that loves with His love.
