Let go and let God

Greetings. I trust I find you well and glowing in the glory of our Lord who loved us so much and had to give His only son to die in our stead. There has been a song upon my heart this week which basically declares that everything is all about Jesus. Yes everything is all about God. Remember He is the Alpha and Omega, everything begins and ends with Him and the bible says in Romans 4v12 that we all shall give account to God concerning ourselves. That in itself shows that we not in total control of everything. The life we have belongs to God, the splendor of the earth, riches and everything you might think of belongs to and is under the control of a great and mighty God.

When we become born again there is a wonderful transition which takes place. The moment we accept Christ, He dwells inside of us. We let Him be the master of our lives; Jesus Christ should then take the steering wheel over your life. Your life should then be subjected to the will of God. All this comes with understanding the meaning of "Christ living in me". Jesus being the center of our lives makes us become a new creation in Christ. You might have had your own desires, objectives, missions etc but when you come to Christ you surrender it all to Him.

This is what is supposed to happen to every believer that is to reach a point of total surrender to God. We have to conform to the standard of heaven; heaven cannot bow down to our standards. Most of us are in a state of Partial surrender. We have certain areas that we want God to control and certain areas we don't. This is why it is critical to understand that when you are born again the old has passed away and you cannot come to God with the same mindset and attitude that you were having when you were in the world. We live in misery of worry because we all know that on our own we cannot make it. We need God more but yet we still hold on to things and issues and not surrendering them to Him.

Christ at the point of suffering still said, "Not my will but yours be done", Christ understood that everything was about the Father's will and that's what we need to understand as well. Life is not about us and what we want. Everything is all about God the creator of heaven and earth. We need to reach a point of totally surrendering to His will; conforming our lives to His expectations. We live in misery of worry over happenings of life that we have no control over forgetting who ultimately controls everything. We have this assurance that God is for us and Him loving us so much as to lay down the life of His only begotten for us is a pure indication that with Him we stand. No eye has seen nor ear heard what God has prepared for them that love Him. So just imagine how much more can He do for us if we align our lives to His will. So desire today to let go of yourself and let God. Whatever area of your life that is not progressing just let it go and let God be God over your life. So lets let go and let God

Stay Blessed
