STANDING STRONG¤¤ Everyday we have a choice as to whom we will serve. Yes,as christians we say we follow and serve Christ,but lets closely examine our declared devotion nd see if we can deepen our surrender. You see,the truth is we either serve ourselves,man-made goods,or the one true God. We may not literally bow down to anyone or anything,but our actions speak for themselves. Many of us fall into the trap of serving our own, selfish appetites or our image (a people-pleasing disease of pride) We can even be ruled by our fears nd insecurities. FACT ::Christians are to be servants of Christ. Obviously,a good servant should do the wIll of his master. Its never the other way around. That would be ludicrous ! Be Honest. As u reflect on this day,who has been the leader » the Holy Spirit, you, or something or someone else. If the Lord has not been the master fo your days lately, u havent been able to enjoy all the fullness of life nd Him that JOHN 10:10 describes! Plus youve been missing out on being effective nd fruitful for Kingdom. But there is good news!!His word clearly shows us how to overcome this nd STAND STRONG as his faithful servant-Humbly yielding all to GOD. Submit yourself in total surrender. Yield to GOD in the very smallest way. Dont be afraid to trust Him Completely. Youll find HE is more than worthy of your all. Youll discover His power at work in you complete weakness. Youll enjoy the honor of truly knowing nd serving the Gentle nd Good master. If we are to Stand Strong,must daily choose whom we will serve. For further Study :: read through. JAMES 4:3-10 and 1 JOHN 2:15 again. Make a list of all GOD wants you to do when battling pride nd worldliness. Prayerfully read through your list nd ask GOD to show you how to RESPOND.
