There are probably 100 million
people who would trade places with us.
We must be thankful and focus
on God's agenda, and He'll focus on our agenda.
Jesus's flesh man didn't want
to go to the cross that's why He prayed your will not mine be done.
Luke 22:41-42 (ESV)
41 And he withdrew from them about a stone's throw,
and knelt down and prayed, 42 saying, “Father, if
you are willing, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my
will, but yours, be done.”
Let's think about the areas of
our lives that we haven't surrendered. To surrender, we must surrender
all.
Romans 12:1 (ESV)
I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of
God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and
acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship.
The international sign of surrender is hands lifted. It
can't be your problem, and God's at the same time.
Oh God, I am fully surrendered to you. Hands lifted is
the most venerable position ever. Without our hands, we can't do
anything. Hands lifted is when the parent picks up the child.
1 Timothy 2:8 (ESV)
I desire then that in every place the men should
pray, lifting holy hands without anger or quarreling;
There aren't my problems any
longer, God, but yours. God, you have 100% of my money.
The only thing that God does
not have is your sin. He wants is your sin.
1 John 1:9 (ESV)
9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to
forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
