Song of the Month: “No Longer Slaves”

If you read newspaper ads, watch television commercials or just pay attention to the calendar in general, you’ll know that Mother’s Day is coming up next weekend. It was a bit of a trick to relate the Song of the Month to this Hallmark-inspired holiday without pouring on too much schmaltz, but I think I’ve done it.

Randy introduced “No Longer Slaves” by Bethel Music to me awhile back, and I’ve been champing at the bit to share it with you because I love it so very much. It doesn’t really have anything to do with Mother’s Day, per se, but it has everything to do with what God did in my heart and soul on my journey to motherhood.

Some chains, like fear, can be broken only by God. I’m guessing the woman singing at the end of this video has experienced this; maybe you have, too.

Awesome song, Lois, and another new one for me! I’ve never been particularly fearful, but the concept of being “no longer a slave” has SO many applications. Thanks, once again, for very moving post! 🙂

That’s a good point, Lydia. What we’ve been enslaved by isn’t as critical as the fact that God is the only one who truly can set us free.
