Walking Within His Calling of Graceful Surrender (Part 3)
O LORD, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps-Jeremiah 10:23 (kjv)
Graceful surrender. Surrendering is a heavy topic I see. Surrender is not just something that we decide to do in our own strength. No, it doesn't work that way. Surrendering to God is going to hurt at times, it's going to be questionable, it's going to look impossible. But hey, God has a way of showing up with miracles at the proper timing. Miracles are not just gifts of healing others. But it's in other ways. God sends divine intervention and human intervention for His children's sake. That's how much He loves us and favors us. It doesn't mean favoritism but it just means God really loves and takes care of His children.
Needing you to see that life is not just the physical aspect of it but there's a spiritual war trying to distract you from your current purpose because it's going to lead a lot of people to Christ and the enemy doesn't want you to know that so He will use your weaknesses of the past or anything that can try to deter you in order to try to cause you to slip away from the path God has ordained specifically for you to walk in. Don't hide from your creative side or your entertainment side. Don't hide your laughter just because you think people won't like you for it. Be yourself. A part of surrender is surrendering the mind to an obedient lifestyle choice and then your actions will follow.
There are things God is going to prompt us to do that will seem funny, odd, and impossible to others. But God knows what He's doing and He's getting ready to surprise you. While you're facing these thoughts, God is working behind the scenes for your good. While you're worrying about your next job, God is preparing something way better for you.
Whenever things look shaky and it doesn't look possible. Trust the fact, that God is moving hearts for your good and for His glory. It's time to break through barriers that were trying to prevent you and distract you from the calling God has over your life. PRAY, KNEEL, SEEK HIS FACE. For your blessings will be coming at His opportune moment.
While you wait, remain faithful to His Word and guidance. For the best is yet to come for you.
Surrender the agenda of fear because that agenda isn't going to work out for your good. Keep the agenda of productivity and working for His kingdom, your reward is coming.
Surrender it all because of what God has for you, no devil in hell could take it away from you.
No past mistake can stop you from obtaining it because you repented of it. God is good like that.
Remember, S u r r e n d e r!
It gets way better than this. Way better!
Even if it doesn't right now? Watch it shift later on, for His glory, for your protection, for His love towards you is B I G! Trust His processes child of God.
