by Overseer Prophet Daniel Powell Sr.
God is about to move! In a move of God, we have to be in position, or we will miss it. When God says there is about to be a move of God, it has already begun.
We're still talking about surrendering, but we will see what's produced when we do not surrender and when we do surrender all. When we do not surrender all, we cannot receive all that Christ has for us.
Surrender Part II
In Romans 12:1-2, we see that spiritual transformation starts in our minds and our heart. It does not begin in our houses, cars, bank accounts, etc. Whenever there's a move of God, there's spiritual transformation. God gives us all an opportunity to be spiritually transformed. For example, it took the children of Israel 400 years to submit and to be spiritually transformed. Some were rebellious, stubborn, and disobedient.
A mind that is dedicated to the world and its concerns is not dedicated to God's Kingdom. It produces a life of being tossed back and forth. If you live a life tossed back and forth, your mind is not dedicated to God's word or the Kingdom of God. That means you have yet to surrender your mind and thoughts to the Lord and have given them to darkness.
The bible says to have the mind of Christ and the heart of God. Dedication is so powerful. It is you giving total access to whatever you are dedicated to. When you dedicate your mind to the world, you have given the world total access to your thoughts and mind. Only a child would dedicate their mind to the world because they do not know any better.
The world's concerns are the world's concerns. Our concerns should be the kingdom of God and the will of God. In God's will it deals with the world, unsaved people, it deals with His people, etc.
In Ephesians 4:11-14, we see the purpose and job of the five-fold ministers. Their job is to equip the saints for the work of ministry.
Therefore, we should no longer be children being tossed to and fro. When we submit to the Lord, we are no longer children, but we are mature. Our attitude, mindset, and character begin to change.
Everybody does not want the fullness of Christ, but we should want the fullness of Christ so we won't be tossed to and fro. Anytime we are tossed to and fro, we are being carried away from the will of God. His truth, and the kingdom of God. Therefore, we should only listen to those who speak about both believing and surrendering, not just those who believe.
Our job is to pray, rebuke, bind and loose, teach, and preach the word. Our job is not to get our hearts and minds wrapped up in the concerns of the world. Everybody does not want the fullness of God. For those who want it, it's our job to tell them about it. When we come to get saved, we come to surrender our life to Christ. Some will say they surrender, but their life is still being tossed to and fro.
Surrender means a willful acceptance and yielding to the will of God. No one has to make you do it. You will do it willfully. Jesus gave up his will, willingly. Until we have given up our will, we have not surrendered.
In James 1:6-8, we see that he who doubts is like a wave of the sea. One who has surrendered should have no doubts. They have given up their power to doubt. When we surrender all, there is no longer a place for doubt and fear to reside.
It takes faith to act faith is the word of God, faith is Jesus Christ. Faith is not a person. It is a spirit, and faith is stable and has been since the beginning. Faith has the power to bring us back the Father, God's glory, salvation, the kingdom of God. When you surrender your life, you live in faith. Scripture Readings: Romans 12:1-2 Ephesians 4:11-14 James 1:6-8
