The Significance of Surrender

Finding the point of surrender seldom comes easily, and it is often discovered in the heat of battle, just when you are ready to walk away from the fight. Instead of quitting, surrender. That’s the key. And there will be times when you may still lose your way, even when you think you have it all together and figured out. Live each day like it is your last because you could leave this life today. Surrender often.

This is the secret for living unconquered and the superpower of people you have watched come out of the fires of life with the embers of hell still clinging to their clothes. They weren’t affected by the fire. In fact, they turned around and went back to get one more person out of the fires of life.

What will you do? Will you choose to walk in your own power, in your own strength, or will you opt to live in the way of the supernatural? That is, surrendered wholeheartedly to God.

God’s Word says to seek first his kingdom, and all the other things you want and long for will be added. It’s only through submitting to God that we find victory over whatever giants we face, and when we opt to fight them in our own power, it’s game over.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not suggesting you surrender to every battle you face in life; just surrender to God. That’s it.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, I am beyond grateful for another day, for another opportunity to serve you. More than anyone else in this world, you know my pain, and you know the scars and the hurt in my life. Today, I am coming to you in total surrender and asking you to take these things from me. I choose to surrender to you not because of my own intellect or because I’m being forced by others. It is my choice. I am yours. My life is yours. All my dreams, ambitions, all my past and tomorrows, they are all yours. Order my steps and lead me. Amen.
