SURRENDERING TO GOD’S DIVINE PLAN (11)
TIMES OF REFRESHING ONLINE DAILY DEVOTIONAL www.thefountspring.org
DATE: SATURDAY, 20 JANUARY 2024
Successively, surrendering deepens our intimacy in prayer. As we align our plan with God’s plan, our prayers become more attuned to His desires, creating a space for profound communion with Him. It is also a pathway to true empowerment through humility. It acknowledges our dependence on God and recognizes that His strength is made perfect in our weakness (see 2 Corinthians 12:9).
SCRIPTURE: “But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore, I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.” – 2 Corinthians 12:9 (NIV)
REFRESHING FOR THE DAY: Surrendering results in consistent spiritual growth. It is a continuous process of yielding, learning, and becoming more Christ-like, ensuring that we do not stagnate but continually deepen our walk with God. Stay Refreshed!
NOTE THIS: Surrender fosters a consistent prayer life as we seek God’s guidance and wisdom, deepening our communication with Him and strengthening our spiritual connection.
RESPONSIBILITY: So dearly beloved, in our places of prayer, let us continually ask God the grace for total surrender. And invite the Holy Spirit to lead us on a journey of consistent spiritual growth.
PRAYER: Heavenly Father, we come before You with an open heart, acknowledging Your sovereignty over our lives. Today, as we surrender our plans, our desires, and ambitions to You, grant us the wisdom to recognize Your guidance and the courage to follow where You lead. In Jesus’ name, we pray, Amen!
PROPHETIC WORD: As we surrender, may it be the catalyst for a deeper, and more meaningful relationship with God, in the name of Jesus’ Amen!
BIBLE TEXTS: 2 Corinthians 12:9
