Morning Line: Submit to Conquer!
“Submit yourselves therefore to God…” James 4:7
Being alert empowers you to be proactive in your personal and spiritual life.
1 Peter 5:6-8 (NRSVCE) “ Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, so that he may exalt you in due time. Cast all your anxiety on him, because he cares for you. Discipline yourselves, keep alert.Like a roaring lion your adversary the devil prowls around, looking for someone to devour.
This is crucial to setting the rules of engagement. If you’re losing more than winning, then you may have omitted this vital rule: Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you… Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts…, Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will exalt you. James 4: 7-10
Submitting to God and Salvation doesn’t enroll
you in a club for the religious elite; it enlists you in the army of the
Lord. And this war isn’t just about you. It’s also about your King, His
ruler ship and authority, and who acknowledges it. Kingdom power is
only given by the King to His subjects. To win this battle you must
recognize your King and submit to Him. The Roman centurion who met
Christ understood this he said:
‘I myself am a man under authority,
with soldiers under me. I tell this one, “Go,” and he goes; and that
one, “Come,”’ and he comes…’ (Luke 7:8 NIV).
He recognized that
he, like Jesus, got his power by submitting to authority. Submitting
yourself to Jesus is what gives you the power to battle successfully.
Knowing as you recognize Jesus Christ’s authority and submit to, it’s
the submitted life that overcomes. Seize this moment and surrender
yourself to Jesus, the King of kings, who said,
‘…All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth’ (Matthew
28:18 KJV).
Under His authority you have that victory
‘…Not by [human] might nor by [human] power, but by My Spirit, says the Lord of hosts’ (Zechariah 4:6 NKJV).
Always stand firm in Him at work in You, you have “All” the power needed to over-come!
With Jesus Christ and His Spirit you’re on the Winning Team for Eternity
Live Life with Expectation!
See you in God’s Winners Circle.
