A LIFE BEYOND OUR DESIRES (3)
TIMES OF REFRESHING DAILY DEVOTIONAL www.thefountspring.org
DATE: MONDAY, 23 SEPTEMBER 2024
So, beloved, when we live for something greater than ourselves, we experience the incredible freedom that comes from surrendering our lives to Christ. No longer are we bound by the expectations of the world or the burden of self-fulfillment. Instead, we find our identity and purpose in Christ, who lives within us.
SCRIPTURE: “I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.” — Galatians 2:20
REFRESHING FOR THE DAY: This surrender doesn’t mean losing ourselves, but rather, discovering who we truly are in Christ. As we let go of control, we make room for the Spirit to lead and shape us according to God’s plan. It’s a life of faith and trust, knowing that the One who gave His life for us is guiding every step. Stay Refreshed!
NOTE THIS: when we live for something greater than ourselves, we experience the incredible freedom that comes from surrendering our lives to Christ.
RESPONSIBILITY: So, beloved, what areas of your life have you yet to fully surrender to Christ? How can you trust in His plan and find freedom in letting go of control?
PRAYER: Dear Heavenly Father, I surrender my life to You. Help me to trust You completely, knowing that Your ways are higher than mine. I find freedom in knowing that You are in control, and I live by faith in Your unfailing love. In Jesus’ name, I pray, Amen.
PROPHETIC WORD: May God help us to trust in Him completely and cause us to find freedom in His control. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
BIBLE TEXTS: Galatians 2:20
