Sin affects men in various ways, but it attacks them in every facet of life. It hinders their walk with God and hurts their ability to reach others for Christ.
Many believers are familiar with the phrase, “Let the redeemed of the Lord say so,” but far too few consider its immediate context in scripture. As the Lord's children, we are to “say so,” but what are we to be saying? Believers are to offer thanks to the Lord and continually speak of His goodness and mercy. Oftentimes, the Bible admonishes God’s people to give thanks unto God for His mercy, especially those who have been redeemed from the hand of the enemy (Psalm 107:2). We also need to give thanks to God because of His redeeming mercy (Psalm 136:1, 2, 3, 26). One who is redeemed can best say so by giving God thanks. Let others know you are not ashamed to belong to God and that you are truly grateful for His working in your life.
