SURRENDER TO GOD

Scripture Reading: Romans 12:1-8
Devotional:- “And so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all he has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice—the kind he will find acceptable. This is truly the way to worship him” (V. 1) NLT

     Praises is an act of surrendering to God. When people surrender in battle, they hand up. That is why we lift up our hands when we are praising God. It's a pity people do that today without knowing the meaning neither do they mean that (Psalms 63:4; 134:2). Lifting up of hands mean to surrender to an authority recognized as superior.

The word of God ask us to surrender our bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God. The word of God says this is the true way to worship God (Romans 12:1)NLT. So, it means worship and praises will not be sincere if we don't first surrender. People who worship without surrendering are known as pretenders. Their heart is not true. Their intention is corrupt (Mark 7:6). But this is what most people do often. They lift up hands in the place of worship but they disobey God at will.

Friend, the time has come to make up your mind to surrender to God. Give yourself sincerely as a living sacrifice to God. This means you have to be dead to self but alive to God (Romans 6:1-6). Self is the mentality we have grown up with in our culture and tradition that is contrary to the will of God (Romans 12:2). The Bible says we should unlearn those things. To be dead to self means to be separated from the lifestyle that is contrary to the word of God. This is what it means to be praiseful. This is what it means to be obedience to God and to live in righteousness. Peace!

PRAYER: Lord, help me to truly surrender to you

“LIVING IN CONSISTENT OBEDIENCE IS THE SIGN OF TRUE SURRENDER”

FOLLOWING CHRIST                   Luke 14:25-33 Devotional Verse:- "If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple” (Vs. 26)      God has enthroned Jesus as King of kings and the Lord of lords (Revelation 17:14). Jesus earned this office by becoming the sacrificial Lamb of God for the salvation and redemption of man (Phil. 2:7-11). Therefore, every citizen of the kingdom of God must be followers and disciples of Jesus.

MASTER’S MINAS Luke 19:11-27 Devotional:- “So he called ten of his servants, delivered to them ten minas, and said to them, 'Do business till I come” (V. 13) NKJV      The word of God instructs us to do business. The Bible did not advise us to do business but it commanded us. That is why it would be wrong for you and me to be without a business. That makes idleness a crime against self (1 Thessalonians 4:11). Business is whatever you are doing to earn income. God will not accommodate idleness with anyone because He invested heavily in us.

TRANSFORMED BY TROUBLE

TRANSFORMED BY TROUBLE 2 Corinthians 4:7-18 Devotional:- “For our present troubles are small and won't last very long. Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly outweighs them and will last forever!” (V. 17) NLT  God has a purpose behind every problem. God depends more on circumstances to grow our character than reading the Bible; this is because we have challenging circumstances twenty four seven. The word of God made us to see challenges in our life as normal (1 Peter 4:18). Your deepest expression of worship is mostly in the darkest days. It is during suffering that we learn to pray our most authentic, heart-felt and honest prayers to God (James 5:16). God would have kept Jeremiah from the throne to the pit, Joseph from been thrown into the jail, Paul from been shipwrecked or the three Hebrew from been thrown into the fire but he left those problems to himself. You will never know that God is all you need until God is all you have.  Everything that happens to you has spir...
