If we give ourselves unreservedly to God, many adjustments may have to be made: in family, or business, or church relationships, or in the matter of our personal views.God will not let anything of ourselves remain. His finger will touch, point by point, everything that is not of Him and will say: "This must go."
Are you willing ? it is foolish to resist God, and always wise to submit to Him. We admit that many of us still have controversies with the Lord. He wants something, while we want something else.
Many things we dare not look into, dare not pray about, dare not even think about, lest we lose our peace. We can evade the issue in that way, but to do so will bring us out of the will of God. It is always an easy matter to get out of His will, but it is a blessed thing just to hand ourselves over to Him and let Him have His way with us.
How good it is to have the consciousness that we belong to the Lord and are not our own. There is nothing more precious in the world. It is that which brings the awareness of His continual presence, and the reason is obvious.
I must first have the sense of God's possession of me before I can have the sense of His presence with me.
"Know ye not, that to whom ye present yourselves as servants unto obedience, his servants ye are whom ye obey?"
-(Romans 6:16)
I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptance to God, which is your spiritual worship.
-( Romans 12:1)
I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.
( Gal 2:20)
Faith Declaration
I am the Lord's, and now no longer reckon myself to be my own but acknowledge in everything His ownership and authority.
. . . may we always be possessed by the consciousness that we are not our own....
Hope this message blessed you.
