When God calls people to an assignment, it will always look ridiculous. It will always look too big to confront. It will always look like a difficult thing. But in it is the glory of the destiny of each who lives in it. Noah was a man who loved the Lord and hated evil. God’s word says he was found righteous in his generation. When God decided to destroy the earth with water, he was the man who found favour with God. And God gave him an assi...

SURRENDER TO GOD

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”
