We all sing the song I’m sure…I surrender all…I surrender all…all to thee my blessed Savior…I surrender all…but the question this morning is do we really surrender all…and I mean everything to our Heavenly Father…do we really let go of things..do we really deny ourselves and pick up our crosses and follow the Lord..Luke 9:23…do we really let go of it all?…sometimes we may think that we do…but when certain situations present themselves…and things seem to go in different directions…then I do believe that’s when we all can see just what all it is that we do surrender…because letting go of things that belong to us..and letting go of who we are and what not..is never an easy thing…for none us like to let go…I mean we mark and claim pretty much everything that concerns us in our lives..and we all as well like to be in control of our lives…but surrendering guys everything to the Lord and trusting Him to take care of all…is a total and completely faith issue concerning each of us…because trusting in the Lord takes a lot of relationship building…and that building of that relationship doesn’t always happen overnight….but once we get to that place to where we know, that we know that God is for us..Romans 8:31…and  that God works all things together for our good..Romans 8:28..and that God is Almighty and that the Lord holds us all in the palm of HIs hands..Isaiah 49:16…and that He bottles up our tears..Psalm 56:8…and that He numbers the very hairs upon our heads..Luke 12:7…and that His eyes they never sleep nor ever do they slumber..Psalm 121:4..and that they are always going to and fro throughout the land..2 Chronicles 16:9..and that He is always making intercession for us..Romans 8:34..and that He is the Mighty warrior..Jeremiah 20:11…and that He is the provider..Psalm 54:4…and that He is our healer..Isaiah 53:4-5…He is our deliverer..1 Chronicles 16:35…that He is our freedom..2 Corinthians 3:17..that He is our everything…then it is easier to trust in the Lord with all of our hearts and lean not unto our own understandings but in all of our ways acknowledge the Lord, knowing that He will direct our pathways..Proverbs 3:5-6…knowing that the steps of a righteous man are ordered of the Lord..Psalm 37:23…and knowing that He makes all them crooked places in our lives straight..Isaiah 45:2..and knowing that He turns all of them stumbling blocks into stepping stones…and knowing that there is nothing in all of this world that our God can’t do…for He is God..and He is able to do anything, anywhere and anytime that He alone chooses…for scripture reads it this way…that God will do exceedingly abundantly above anything that we could ever ask or think..Ephesians 3:20…and that prayer it does and always does move “ALL” of them mountains in our lives…Hallelujah….so what can any of us say, that if God is for us than who can be against us?…absolutely nothing or no one..Romans 8:31…for the Lord our God even cause our enemies to be at peace with us..Proverbs 16:7…for that’s just the kind of God that we serve…He is always there when we need Him we can stand upon His word…for that’s the kind of God that we serve!..So let us all just let go…and let us let God!, for we can always trust in our Lord..for He is ever so faithful and ever so true!…In Jesus’ name! Amen and Amen!…Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi
