SURRENDERING TO GOD’S DIVINE PLAN (6)

TIMES OF REFRESHING ONLINE DAILY DEVOTIONAL www.thefountspring.org

DATE: MONDAY, 15 JANUARY 2024

Consequently, beloved, having understood what it means to surrender to God’s divine plan and ways we can sincerely surrender, now let us explore the benefits in surrendering to God’s plan. Surrendering to God’s plan is a profound journey of self-discovery. Yes, this is true. It is not a loss of identity, but rather an unveiling of our true identity in Christ. You see, we live in a world that often encourages self-reliance and independence, and the concept of surrender may seem the opposite, but in reality, it leads to a profound revelation of who we are meant to be.

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 (NIV)

REFRESHING FOR THE DAY: Surrendering to God’s plan means recognizing that our identity is not solely defined by our achievements, roles, or societal expectations. Instead, it is deeply rooted in our relationship with Christ. And as we yield to His Will, we discover a deeper understanding of who we are as beloved children of God. Stay Refreshed!

NOTE THIS: Surrendering is not a loss of identity but a discovery of our true selves in Christ Jesus.

RESPONSIBILITY: So, let us ask God for the grace to always surrender to His plan and Will in our lives.

PRAYER: Oh, LORD, thank You for Your Word today. Please, help our lives. Give us the grace to always surrender to Your divine plan and Will for us. In Jesus’ name, we pray, Amen!

PROPHETIC WORD: And as we surrender, may we discover our true selves in Christ, in the name of Jesus’ Amen!

BIBLE TEXTS: Galatians 2:20
