SURRENDER

Surrender is a word that is used easily but the meaning of it is seldom realised. Surrender means to give up one's own way to another. When an enemy in defeat surrenders, than the conquerer takes all of his possessions and now becomes a slave. The enemy has no more rights and is totally beholden to the conquerer. The same way when you surrender your life to Jesus , He becomes your Master. He has all rights to you. You have been saved from sin to righteousness.. You have become. His slave. A slave has no freedom than what is afforded to him by his master. Yet there is a freedom in Christ because He sets you free from the stronghold of sin. No more are you a slave to sin. Now you are a slave to righteousness. Whoever is your master directs your life. There maybe longings for the delights of Eygpt but there is no more a compulsion to sin. Wow what a freedom. Where there is a compulsion to sin there is a stronghold that needs to be cut off. Surrender is the way to be set free. Demonic infestation cannot stand the blood of Jesus and the Name of Jesus. Call on Him in total surrender and be free. No more a slave to fear. I am now free to love. Love is the fruit of freedom from sin.
