ESCAPED LIKE A BIRD
Psalm 124:7 – "We have escaped like a bird from the fowler’s snare; the snare has been broken, and we have escaped."
Devotion
Life is filled with traps—situations designed by the enemy to entangle and destroy us. These snares could be sin, fear, doubt, addiction, or even oppression from others. But the psalmist declares a powerful truth: we have escaped! The snare is broken, not by our strength, but by the hand of the Lord.
When the enemy sets traps, God is our rescuer. Just as a bird caught in a hunter’s snare is helpless without intervention, we, too, need God's saving power. Through Jesus Christ, the greatest trap of all—sin and death—has been broken (Romans 6:23). No matter what the enemy plots, God's power ensures our escape.
Are you feeling trapped today? Call on the Lord. He is the One who breaks every snare, setting His people free to soar again.

Golden Nugget

Prayer
Heavenly Father, thank You for being my deliverer. I declare that every snare of the enemy is broken in my life. Set me free from anything that seeks to hold me captive. Let me walk in the freedom that Jesus Christ has purchased for me. In Jesus' name,
AMEN.
