Have you read/studied Paul's Epistle to the Colossians lately? If not, I urge you to do so. Paul is showing the preeminence of Christ in all things and our freedom in Him.
Hopefully, this message will encourage each of us to read, study and ponder the word before the Lord so that we may know Him more and respond rightly to our glorious Lord and Savior.
Some of the following are things to consider asking the Holy Spirit to open up to us more fully. I'll give the address, but only write out a few verses, but please read all the verses-- (Read all of Colossians and be blessed!)

Christ is preeminent in creation (1:15-18):
"He is the image of the invisible God, the first born of all creation."
Vs. 15

Christ is preeminent in redemption (1:19-23):
"And you, who once were alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now He has reconciled in the body of His flesh through death, to present you holy, and blameless, and irreproachable in His sight--" Vs 23-23

Christ is preeminent in the Church (1:24-2:3):
"I (Paul) now rejoice in my suffering for you, and fill up in my flesh what is lacking in the afflictions of Christ, for the sake of His body, which is the church." Vs. 24 "The mystery which has been hidden from ages and from generation, but now has been revealed to His saints. To them God willed to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles: which is Christ in you the hope of glory." Vs. 26-27

In Chapter 2, Paul goes on to encourage our hearts as they are being knit together in love and an assurance of understanding and knowledge of the mystery of God, both of the Father and of Christ, "In whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge." Vs. 2:3

Now he goes on to tell us of our freedom in Christ.
Freedom from enticing words (2:5-7);
"Now this I say lest anyone should deceive you with persuasive words."  Vs. 
4
"As you have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith, as you have been taught..." Vs. 6-7

Freedom from vain philosophy:
"Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ.
For in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily; And you are complete in Him, who is the head of all principality and power."
Vs. 2:8-10

Freedom from the judgment of men (2:11-17):
"Therefore let no one judge you in food or in drink, or regarding a festival or a new moon or sabbaths, which are a shadow of things to come, but the substance is of Christ." Vs. 16-17

Freedom from improper worship:
"Let no one defraud you of your reward, taking delight in false humility and worship of angels, intruding into those things which he has not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind, and not holding fast to the Head, from whom all the body, nourished and knit together by joints and ligaments, grows with the increase which is from God." Vs. 18-19

Freedom from the doctrine of men:
"Therefore, if you died with Christ from the basic principles of the world, why as though living in the world, do you subject yourselves to
regulations--
'Do not touch, do not taste, do not handle,'
Which all concern things which perish with the using--according to the commandments and doctrines of men?
These things indeed have an appearance of wisdom in self-imposed religion, false humility, and neglect of the body, but are of no value against the indulgence of the flesh." Vs. 20-23

When I was born again, freedom in Christ Jesus set me free from the bondage listed here! How very grateful I am for God's grace that rescued me from sin and death!
Most Holy Mighty God, in all humbleness, I thank you. Amen
