SURRENDER ALL TO JESUS

SURRENDER ALL TO JESUS

Proverbs 3:5 KJV
Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; And lean not unto thine own understanding.

A person who has believed in Jesus is one who enters His rest but it requires you to surrender everything to Him.

To surrender is not all about giving out all your assets, it's beyond leaving food and fast for days but it's all about leaning your entire personality to Christ and allow Him to do things His Way.

In the book of Jeremiah 17:5 the Bible speaks about a man inner man who trusts in man flesh that he is cursed and he won't see good. 
Spiritual blindness is when you lean on your own understanding and the end result of this is that your heart will turn away from the Lord and you won't be able to see the good in Him 

You may have read your books, or labored more than your workmates, you pray for more hours than anyone and all these are useful but always remember that it's always God who causes us both to will and to do.
Never determine your success in exams, at work, in your family, ministry by what you have done but instead by what Jesus did on the cross because that's what define our victory

JOT OF VERACITY
Our victory is defined by the Cross not by what we have done because even in what we have done it's Him who causes us both to will and to do.

✓ Colossians 1:4 AMP
✓ Jeremiah 9:23-24 NKJV

PRAYER
Heavenly Father I thank You for this Truth, I believe that Your drawing me to places where I only look at You not on my works, I thank You for the Cross because it's what defines my victory AMEN

POWER OVER SIN

ELGON MISSION TEAM ~ DAILY DEVOTION Bible study department Sunday 16th June,2024 Galatians 5:24 (TLB) Those who belong to be Christ have nailed their natural evil desires to his cross and crucified them there.   POWER OVER SIN The strength for our conquering and our victory is drawn continually from Christ. The Bible does not teach that sin is completely eradicated from the Christian in this life, but it does teach that sin shall no longer reign over you.  The strength and power of sin have been broken. The Christian now has resources available to live above and beyond this world. The Bible teaches that whosoever is born of God does not practice sin. It is like the little girl who said that when the devil came knocking with a temptation, she just sent Jesus to the door. FURTHER STUDY: Romans 4:7(NKJV) Romans 6:14(NKJV) 1 John:18(NKJV) PRAYER: Lord Jesus, I Thank you for the power that continually make me live above sin, I live and move as a victor because the world finds ...

ELGON MISSION TEAM DAILY ~ DEVOTIONS Bible study department Saturday 13th January 2024 John 14:15-16 NKJV "If you love Me, keep My commandments. And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever THE COMMANDMENT OF THE LORD In this portion of scripture, Jesus is telling his disciples that they have to keep His commandments then by that is when He will ask God the Father to send them the helper, that will abide with them forever. Mark 12:30 - 31 And you shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.' This is the first commandment. And the second, like it, is this: "You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no other commandment greater than these." There are many commandments that were given to the children of Israel but then we see Jesus Christ The Son of God enlightening us in this part of scripture that there is no other c...

Necessity Of Fasting

ELGON MISSION TEAM ~ DAILY DEVOTIONS Bible study department Thursday 13th June 2024 Mathew 17:21 (kJV)   "How beit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting." NECESSITY OF FASTING In the book of Mathew 9:14-15,we realize that the groom left only when he spent 3 days in the grave. We all believe in His resurrection and the bible clearly tells us that when we received Him He begun to dwell in us, in other words the bridegroom is with us still. So why then do we fast?? Many christians have it on their minds that it's because they fast that they receive results simply because they received results after some serious days, weeks, months, or even years of fasting, this is a very inconsistent way to go about fasting because if you think that what Jesus did on the cross is not enough, then how much more is your fasting insufficient?? , you can't help God by fasting. Apostle Paul wrote in 1 Corinthians 9:27(AMP) ".........but like a boxer, I buffett my...
