What are you allowing to bind you up? When you are bound, you are restricted. To be bound means to be tied up or in bonds. What are you allowing to tie up your thoughts and your forward movement with God?
Understand, we can be bound to circumstances and we can also be bound to lines of behavior. What is causing you to act the way you do or to think the way you do? Is your heart bound to God? Is it bound to the point where it is tied to and securely connected with Him and His Word?
We have to make sure we are bound to the right thing. Another definition for bound is to be secured within a cover (like a book). The pages of a book are protected because of the cover. Know that God is your covering if you bind yourself to His Word, His will, and His way.
So don’t be bound by the wrong things because again, it affects your behaviors. What you do in most cases is dictated by who and what you have connected yourself to. Make sure you stay connected to God.
SCRIPTURE MEDITATION
Deuteronomy 11:18
King James Version (KJV)
18 Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes.
