SEPTEMBER 4

John 17:6- “Thine they were, and Thou gavest them Me.”

Remember to read “My Utmost for His Highest” for Today

 BE ENTIRELY HIS

I give up my status and preferences. I surrender all self centered  fame.

I submit myself and my attitudes to the sovereign Power of His Name.

The Lord is my Keeper and Defender. The Lord is my Captain of ship.

No competition or vacillation because decisions become entirely His.

The preferences, relationships and projects are designed by His Infinite care.

Eligibility to be part of God’s Purpose is always without fanfare.

To develop as a conduit for Jesus, to pledge total loyalty to Him

Is misunderstood by others but is a privilege that never grows dim.

PONDER- Total surrender, obedience and servant hood changes a life. Some areas of surrender are easier than others. List things  or relationships that are keeping you from total surrender. Struggles are an important part of God’s refining process. Welcome the refining. Eventually, the trip will be well worth the journey. Journal the changes that surrender brings.

DEAR LORD, Thank you that I know that I am Your Child. Thank you for loving me enough to die for my sins and rise again the third day. Thank you for the wonderful spiritual processes or journey that brought me to this place today. Help me to keep on surrendering and obeying You as Your Spirit leads and guides. Thank you that You always meet us in the lonely times when those around do not understand your wooing love to me. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
