March 14, 2019 UCB Word for today Devotional : Topic - Surrender to God (1)

--> Note :- Are you born again? You are never going to win the battle against the devil if you are not born again. I plead with you to give your life to Jesus today because the longer you stay in sin and remain unsaved, the more hardened your nature becomes against the purpose and the way God wants you to be for His purpose. To give your life to Jesus now, say this prayer: “Father, I come to You in the name of Jesus. I know that I am a sinner and I cannot save myself but Jesus died for me and shed His blood that I might be saved. Today, I accept Jesus as my Lord and Saviour. Jesus, I ask You to come into my heart, be my Lord, wash me with Your blood and make me whole. I believe with my heart and confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord. Thank You for saving me. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.” I congratulate you and welcome you to the family of God if you have sincerely said that prayer. Now you are fit to discover, know and walk in your destiny.

Surrender to God (1)

14 MARCH 2019
‘I no longer live, but Christ lives in me.’
John Calvin defined surrender in these words: ‘To have no other will, no other wisdom, and to follow the Lord wherever He leads.’ To do this, you will have to face your greatest fear: who will drive your life? It’s pretty handy to have Jesus in the passenger seat when we require His service. 

‘Lord, I have a health problem, and I need Your help. Something hard is going on at work, and I’d like it to be different. I’m feeling anxious, and I want You to give me peace of mind. I’m feeling sad, and I’d like a little hope. I’m facing death, and I want to make sure I’m going to heaven.’ But when it comes to sliding out from behind the wheel and letting Jesus drive, we’re not so sure about that because it means we are no longer in control. 
For example, if He’s driving, you are not in charge of your wallet anymore. You can’t say, ‘I’ll give sometimes when I feel generous, but I reserve the right to keep what I want.’ Now it’s Jesus’ money. When you let Jesus drive you’re no longer in charge of your ego. You no longer have the right to satisfy every self-centred ambition. Now it’s His life. 
You are not in charge of your mouth anymore. You don’t get to gossip, flatter, cajole, condemn, lie, curse, rage, cheat, intimidate, manipulate, exaggerate, and prevaricate any more. Now it’s not your mouth – it’s His mouth. So here’s the question: have you invited Jesus along for the ride, or is He driving? The word for you today is: surrender to God.
Numbers 26-28, Mark 8:31-38
