July 27 through Aug 3
This was our week memory verse. When i read it last week i remembered it clearly because it is a verse i struggled with and still it happens that i struggle with it.........
My struggle is to give-up ME ; when God's Spirit...The HOLY SPIRIT who came to live in me,when i choose to follow Jesus...opens my eyes to change...to give-up...
WHAT is it that i had and have to give -up of myself!?
PRIDE and
CONTROL !!
I must and had to learn to SURRENDER !!
Me surrender?? Make myself funerable ??
YES....before GOD .......at the feet of JESUS YOUR LORD! !!
You don't need to be strong ...and put a face-up before God....
That is what you learned from "small" the way the world learned you to protect yourself and face life struggles!!
YOU must give-up having/keeping/trying to have control.........
Give yourself and everything of yourself to God and SAY " THAT YOU THOUGHT TO KNOW EVERYTHING.BUT THAT YOU KNOW NOTHING "!!
CONFESS!!
AND HE IS FAITHFUL AND JUST AND WILL FORGIVE YOUR SINS!!
HE is your DAD who loves you immensely....You will experience a love you NEVER know before.....and it is ALWAYS there for you!!
Start LOVING JESUS more give your relationship with HIM priority........give -up everything what stands in the way of this relationship........
AND
HE WILL PURIFY YOU FROM ALL UNRIGHTEOUSNESS !!
You will CHANGE/TRANSFORM from your old self in a NEW-SELF the person God wanted you to be........
YOU will be STRONG IN THE LORD...and not your own strength !
You will boast about the Lord and not be prideful about your own accomplishments....
YOU WILL BE AND FEEL FREE.........!!
You will not carry your burdens anymore by yourself!!
Two video's i found one who made me sing this verse and memorize it in a playing way.....
and the other one pictured in a way my and i believe the struggle of a lot of Christians who are pressing -on pursuing to follow Jesus and be transformed!
Don't forget to head over to "The Power of Your Love" to read more about this verse and if you like to join memorizing next week verse.
