Surrender It All

Greetings My Sisters,

Many of you have heard the scripture "I beseech you therefore, brethren (that means sisters too) by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service." Romans 12:1 Well my sisters, that scripture has to come alive in your life. Many of you among the sisterhood have accepted Jesus as savior, joined a church, but there are parts of your old life that you haven’t given up. You’re still hanging on to those things because they please your flesh. So you tell yourself, “it’s no harm,” “nobody’s perfect,” and deep down inside you know it’s sin. "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Romans 6:2  It makes no sense to fake Christianity and die with no hope of eternal life.

You’ve got to surrender it all to God, if you want eternal life. Put your entire life in the will of God. Maybe you’re afraid to do this because you don’t really know what the will of God is. You think to yourself, “What if the will of God is something that I don’t want to do?” “ What if it’s something hard or painful?” These thoughts come straight from the devil. I know because for a long time those were my thoughts. But praise God, one day I realized that in his will, is the safest place for me to be.

I began to pray this prayer. “Lord put me in your will, but before you do, fix my mind so that I’ll be so pleased with your will, I’ll almost think  it’s mine.” After months of praying this prayer, I was able to tell God that I fully surrender my life to his will. I told God to use my life for his glory.

God has a wonderful plan for your life, to do you good and not evil. God wants all of you. DON’T BE AFRAID TO SURRENDER IT ALL!
