We The Redeemed

Psalms 107:2

Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom He hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy.

It is so very important that we realize what it means to be redeemed. Have you ever taken anything to a pawn shop? If you have, you know that there is a period of time when you can still come back and pay a certain price and get your item back. That is called redeeming the article that you had pawned.

When Adam sinned, he pawned himself and the whole human race off to the devil and to death. There was no way that man could pay the price to redeem himself, the reason being, the price was sinless perfection and all men are born with sin. The only solution was that one who was born without sin would have to pay the price for those sold under sin.The only candidate for that was Jesus and He gladly paid the price for our redemption. Praise the Lord for that.

Now, the Bible says that He has redeemed us from the curse of the Law. If we are redeemed, and we are, then we should say so. Say so to what, you may be asking. We should say to everything that is in the curse, “ I am redeemed from you.”

Think, if you will, of all that this entails. When sickness comes knocking at your door. Answer it by saying that I am redeemed from the curse of sickness, therefore, you have no place in me. Jesus has paid the price for that and I will not receive it.

The Bible says that poverty is a curse. In that case, if you are redeemed, then say so. Say, I am redeemed from the curse of poverty and I have all blessing coming in and going out in my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

This is true of everything that is a curse. Therefore, we that are the redeemed of the Lord, say so.
