Stuff That Stuck Out:
- The heart of worship is surrender.
- We give ourselves to him, not out of fear or duty, but in love.
- True worship -- bringing God pleasure -- happens when you give yourself completely to God.
- Offering yourself to God is what worship is all about.
- Trust is an essential ingredient to surrender.
- Our pride is a barrier to total surrender.
- A.W. Tozer said, "The reason why many are still troubled, still seeking, still making little forward progress is because they haven't yet come to the end of themselves. We're still trying to give orders, and interfering with God's work within us."
- Surrender means sacrificing your life or suffering in order to change what needs to be changed.
- Surrender is best demonstrated in obedience and trust.
- The supreme example of self-surrender is Jesus.
- When you fully surrender your life to God you experience peace, freedom, and God's power in your life.
- Surrendered people are the ones God uses.
- You are free to choose what you surrender to, but you are not free from the consequences of that choice.
- Surrender is not the best way to live; it is the only way to live. Nothing else works.
- There is a moment of surrender, and there is the practice of surrender, which is moment-by-moment and lifelong.
Verse to Remember: "Surrender your whole being to him to be used for righteous purposes." Romans 6:13b (TEV)
