I remember praying for christian converts in prison one day - I was in bible study correspondence with them for Bill Glass ministries. I had also just visited a downtown ministry to feed the poor men at a mens mission in an inner city ghetto. As I was praying I referred to the prisoners as prisoners and the poor as the poor and the Holy Spirit corrected me and said the prisoners in the prisons are free and the poor you are praying for are the prisoners because they are in captivity to drug addiction and alchoholism. Imagine my shock over that! I thought oh my! How could I have missed that! Truly the prisoners who had given their lives to Christ were as free as a bird and singing a joyful song like one too! Funny how our human mind can be conditioned not to see things as God sees them.
