Romans 6.22: But now having been freed from sin and enslaved to God, you derive your benefit, resulting in sanctification, and the outcome eternal life.
We were there like in a pond of mud and were not able to come out. But we asked Him to take us out...-and He did!
He brought me up out of the pit of destruction, out of the miry clay ( -Psalm 40.2a)
I don't want back to that pit anymore and my safety now is God; - I am enslaved to God. I am bought free by the precious blood of Jesus. It is a free gift and to be enslaved to God is a part of that gift. The fruit of being with God is sanctfication. Therefore I will have my refuge in Jesus and by grace day by day be changed towards being more and more like Jesus. And finally I will be in heaven with Him to live eternally there.
