"Surrender your heart to God, turn to Him in prayer, and give up your sins—even those you do in secret. Then you won’t be ashamed; you will be confident and fearless. Your troubles will go away like water beneath a bridge, and your darkest night will be brighter than noon. You will rest safe and secure, filled with hope and emptied of worry." Job 11:13-18 (CEV).
What do you read above are
Three commands from God:
1. Surrender your heart to God
2.Turn to Him in Prayer.
3. Give up your sins even those you do in secret.
Then in return you will get 8 promises from God!
1. You won't be ashamed
2. You will be confident
3. You will be fearless
4. Your troubles will go away like water under a bridge.
5. Your darkest night of trouble will be brighter than noon.
6. You will rest and get a good night's sleep.
7. You will be filled with hope
8. You will be emptied of worry.
Give it a try... It worked for me. Just keep yourself out of the way and allow God to guide you.
Do you wonder if you can get to the point that you can surrender it all to God? There is much going on in our world, in our country, and our people. Conflict, war, aggression, hatred, financial issues, and so much more. How can you know God is with you? How does this work? I can testify to you, it works.
Write down your personal morning request from Him in a tablet or a spiral notebook.... and then read it out loud and say it daily. I am reminded in a recent verse I studied from 1 John 4:18, “Where God’s love is, there is no fear, because God’s perfect love drives out fear” (NCV). Are you ready to live without fear?
You could start with "Good morning God, I want you to lead me through this day. I want to stay focused on your touch in my life and allow you to lead me. Remind me when I need reminding, that I am surrendering all to you. You have complete control Lord, I am letting it all go to you. You control my mind and my emotions. Lord, fill me with your love and peace. Remind me to let go of my words that sound out before I realize what I am saying. Let me extend 'grace' to those around me and keep me from opening my mouth with negativity or judgement."
Think about it... what would you say? Write it out tonight and tomorrow morning, sit up in bed and say it out loud as you read it. I will only take a few weeks and it will feel like it is part of you... and you actually will get brave and change up the words and feel more confident in what you are praying and asking of Him. Start with something comfortable for you...it works!
