Surrendering all is hard. We fight it, push its away, and my personal favorite, run away from it. Surrendering may seem like a scary thing; we want to hold onto our hurt so bad so we allow fleshy thoughts to penetrate our minds in attempt to claim victory over our hearts. That very thing is the devil's #1 goal.
As Christians we sometimes tend to forget that the enemy has the same goal with us and settle into mediocrity in the presence of the Most High. If we don't surrender all to our King of Peace, we will be stuck with the hurt, the bondages, the barriers, and the curses within our lives which will take emmense tolls on our destines; our heavenly destinies. In ways we can't imagine, this destiny was made uniquely for us so that prosperity was our portion. That destiny can be stripped away with the plan of the enemy succeeding, BUT THE BLOOD!
The blood that cleanses and flows through Calvary will cancel out any plan, any addiction, any fear, any insecurity, any doubt, any anxiety, and any lack of faith in God's promises over our lives. He died on the cross for us; me and you. WHAT A SAVIOR!
I'm eating a cupcake and remember His goodness, His love, His glory, and I ask myself, why haven't I surrendered to the Creator. Why am I still trying to take control of a life that I know blindly about. The King of Creation has a perfect plan to use my life in the best way possible as a living testimony to show the goodness of my O SO GRACIOUS GOD.
So I began to worship, worship as if I wanted my worship to rise to the Heavens. I worshipped in spirit and truth. I worshipped like never before; thinking of nothing but God and His goodness, His mercy, His loving kindness and I found myself surrendering; truly surrendering. Giving Him my all, feeling a weight being lifted off of my shoulders and an unexplainable joy in my heart. I wanted to stay in that short moment of witnessing His glory and all the great things my Comforter could do.
Surrendering allows entering His presence and witnessing His amazement our portion. Surrendering allows you to feel rejuvenated and ready to obey His Word so you can get to the place He has assigned us to. As I start my loc journey, both with my hair and with my Savior, I'm going to stay loc'd and devoted to extend my relationship with my Maker beyond comprehension. Heaven is mine and I'm here to claim it!
