No Longer Bound: A Freedom Story

Have you ever been lying awake in bed, fully conscious, but bound? No one is physically holding you, yet your mouth, arms, and legs feel restricted. The only thing you can do is glance around into the darkness. You know your surroundings, but your mind is racing—Am I dreaming? You try to speak, but no words come out… only sounds. Your heart is pounding, and all you can do is THINK JESUS, because you KNOW that name makes demons tremble.
Then suddenly—after calling/thinking on the name that is above every name, JESUS—you’re free.
The world calls this feeling “sleep paralysis.” I call it spiritual warfare.
That feeling of bondage? It tries to convince you that you’re helpless, hopeless, and stuck with no way out. But that is a lie.
“Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.”— 2 Corinthians 3:17
No matter what you may feel bound by, I encourage you to invite the Spirit of the Lord into “it”—and watch how God begins to break every chain of bondage and exchange your sorrow for joy.
Sis, in your own strength, you will never be able to remove the shackles holding you back.But if you are willing to surrender it over to God, He will make you free indeed.
Renounce & Repent 🙏 Call out the lie or stronghold by name. Repent for any agreement you’ve made with it (knowingly or unknowingly), and declare your freedom in Christ. "Whom the Son sets free is free indeed." (John 8:36)
Apply the Word of God 📖 Break every lie with truth. Speak Scripture out loud to demolish spiritual strongholds. The Word is your weapon.Example: “God has not given me a spirit of fear...” (2 Timothy 1:7)
Fast & Pray🔥 Some chains only break through intentional consecration. Fasting aligns your spirit, weakens your flesh, and opens the door for clarity, deliverance, and breakthrough.“This kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting.” (Matthew 17:21)
Freedom is a journey—and wholeness is the destination. But sis, don’t you dare stop in the middle of the process. Healing takes time. Becoming takes courage.But if you keep going, keep trusting, and keep surrendering—it will lead you to the freedom your soul has been crying out for.
Wholeness is your portion. Stay in the process. God is not finished with you yet.
