Shake thyself from the dust; arise, sit down, O Jerusalem; loose thyself from the bands of thy neck, O captive daughter of Zion.
The bands about our necks of our own making. We choose to be bound with bands. We can also choose to be released from them. If we are captives of sin, habits or addictions, it is because we have turned over our agency to the forces of the devil and the natural man. Choosing to be free is not all that is required to throw off our shackles, but it is the first and most powerful step.
