Total Surrender

I am a jealous God who longs for a heart that is passionately devoted and surrendered to me, embracing my authority and letting me lead.

When you came to faith in me, did you invite me into your heart as someone who would help you live your life your way or did you surrender all to me? Do you feel the emptiness and lack in your relationship with me and long for more, or are you experiencing fullness, abundance, and life?

I am calling you out from this dry and worldly counterfeit into the fulness of relationship with me. It’s time to yield your whole self and life to me. I’m calling you to invite me to be in charge of your life – fully your master and Lord.

My grace is with you as you step into the death of your old self and move into resurrection life in Christ Jesus – life in all its fullness.

Activation:

Ask the Holy Spirit to show you all the areas of your life where God is not fully in charge and say sorry for holding on to control over your life. Surrender every part of your life, inviting Jesus to be fully in charge and to direct you in all your ways from here onwards. By faith, step forward into a life of following his lead and put your hands out to receive his fullness.

James 4:4-6 (MSG)

You’re cheating on God. If all you want is your own way, flirting with the world every chance you get, you end up enemies of God and his way. And do you suppose God doesn’t care? The proverb has it that “he’s a fiercely jealous lover.” And what he gives in love is far better than anything else you’ll find. It’s common knowledge that “God goes against the wilful proud; God gives grace to the willing humble.”

Philippians 2:9–11 (GNT)

For this reason God raised him to the highest place above and gave him the name that is greater than any other name. And so, in honour of the name of Jesus all beings in heaven, on earth, and in the world below will fall on their knees, and all will openly proclaim that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
