Young man was at the Circus and he just happen to pass by where they kept the Elephants; he noticed that the elephant is tied with a rope onto a chair. This is a 1200 LBS elephant that is tied onto a chair. He thought, this is very dangerous as the elephant, with no effort, can easily pull on the rope and get away and it could be very dangerous to the crowd. As he was wondering this, one of the trainers pass by, so the young man asked, “trainer, isn’t it dangerous to just ties the elephant with a skinny rope to a simple chair? He can easily get away?” The trainer explained: see young man, when this elephant was just a baby, he was tied with the same rope to the same chair. Back then, he could not get away. So the elephants have been mentally trained and conditioned that they could not get away.  

Oftentimes we are tied to a certain condition and mentally enslaved to those things. Jesus has liberated us from the chains of our past.
