Surrender.

                                                                             Surrender.


Our Greatest Witness.


Father, if you are Willing, take this cup from me, “Yet Not My Will, But Your Will Be Done”.  (Luke 22:42)


The Ultimate Act of “Faith and Trust”; Unfolding in Obedience.


Our Daily Nugget

lets us know that “Our Victory Lies In Our Surrendering”.  To Surrender is to win, because “The Lord Is With Us”, when we surrender.  The Lord is against us when we refuse to surrender.  Not “My Will”, but “Thy Will Be Done”.  To Refuse to Surrender means we have chosen “Our Will Instead of God’s Will”.


Surrender is Not Defeat; It Is Victory.


Surrender - The voluntary act of yielding one’s own will, desires, and control to the “Authority and Goodness of God”.  Rather than a defeat, it is a “Foundational Step of Faith, Trust, and Obedience” that leads to “Spiritual Freedom and Transformation”.


Our Daily Nugget Scripture is what Jesus chose to do when He looked into His Cup of Suffering.  His cup of suffering appeared “too hard for Him to drink”.  Jesus is showing us what we should do when we are confronted with a situation that “appears too hard for us to drink”.  Jesus Prayed for God’s Will to be done.


God answered Jesus’ Prayer and God will answer our Prayers when we say to Him; “Lord, Not My Will But Thy Will Be Done”.  This is “Dying To Self”.  We must “Die Before We Can Live”.  The Obedient son, who does what His Father tells him to do, instead of doing what he feel like doing is a son who has Died To Self.  Now His Father’s Will, Will Be Done.  Great Blessings will flow to that son.


To the World, Surrender is Defeat; “We Were Of The World, but, No Longer”.


This is one more reason why we Must Be Born Again.  Being Born Again means we are a New Creature, who realizes that “We Are In The World, but Not Of the World”.  We no longer act and react like we did when we were “Of The World”.  Now God’s Words guide our Living, not our words.


Trust the Lord Today;

 “Surrender and Experience Victory”.

The Heart/Mind.

                                                                        The Heart/Mind. The Heart/Mind of Christ or the Heart/Mind of Satan?   Fulfill ye my joy, that ye be “likeminded”, “Having the Same Love”, “being of one accord, of one mind”.   “Let nothing be done” through “strife or vainglory”; but in “lowliness of mind (heart) let each esteem other better than themselves”.   Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.   “Let This Mind (Heart) Be In You”, “which was also in Christ Jesus”.   (Philippians 2:2-5) The Heart/Mind of Christ is “A Priceless Blessing”; Available to Us. Our Daily Nugget is Paul letting the Church at Philippi and us know that Kingdom Citizens should be “Of One Mind (Heart/Thinking)”.   Since we have One Lord, One ...

Come.

                                                                                  Come. The Spirit and the Bride says, “Come”. The Spirit and the bride say, “Come”!   And let the one who “Hears” Come!   Let the one who is “Thirsty” Come”; and let the one who “Wishes” take the free gift of the water or life.   (Revelation 22:17) This is a “Call” for all to “accept the gift of eternal life offered through Christ! Our Daily Nugget is letting Kingdom Citizens know that we “Must Be About Our Father’s Business” of Sharing the Invitation to “Come” with everybody we can.   We do this through our Living and our Words.   What we Do speaks so loud, till no one hears what we say.   Our saying is the Destiny of our Thinking; doing is a natural follow through. To Think ...

Train The Brain.

                                                                     Train The Brain. We Train Our Brain Every Time We “Think”.  Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, “Think On These Things”.  (Philippians 4:8) Let this “Mind” be in you, “Which Was Also in Christ Jesus”. (Philippians 2:5) Victory and Defeat, Life and Death, Lies In Our Thinking;  “In How We Have Trained Our Brain”. Our Daily Nugget is written by Paul.  A look at “Saul’s and Paul’s” Life, gives us a perfect picture of the “Fruit of Training the Brain”.  To Train the Brain by thinking on worldly things ...
