Lord of our Lives

Yesterday, surprised by my niece, Yi Ling's visit. I invited her to WEB and she agreed. Do pray for her salvation. During WEB, Ps 8 was read, I felt the word was so beautiful.

O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory above the heavens.
From the lips of children and infants you have ordained praise because of your enemies, to silence the foe and the avenger.
When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place, what is man that you are mindful of him, the son of man that you care for him?

You made him a little lower than the heavenly beings and crowned him with glory and honour.
You made him ruler over the works of your hands; you put everything under his feet:
all flocks and herds, and the beasts of the field, the birds of the air, and the fish of the seas.

O LORD, OUR LORD, how majestic is your name in all the earth! (NIV)

Absolute Surrender

God frequently requires adjustments in areas you have never considered or been open to in the past. You may have heard someone say something like this: " Don't ever tell God something you will NOT do. That is what He will ask you to do. "God is not looking for ways to make you "squirm." He does, however, want to be Lord of your life. Whenever you identify a place where you refuse to allow His lordship, that is a place He will go to work. He is interested in absolute surrender. God may or may not require you to do that very thing you identified, but He will keep working until you are willing for Him to be Lord of all. Remember, because God loves you, His will is always best for you! Any adjustment God expects you to make is for your good. As you follow Him, the time may come that your life and future may depend on your adjusting quickly to God's directives.

The adjusting is always to a Person. You adjust your life to God. You adjust your view points to be like His veiwpoints. You adjust your ways to be like His ways. After you make the necessary adjustments, He will tell you what to do next to obey Him. When you obey Him, you will experience Him doing through you something only God can do.

Kinds of adjustment

In circumstances
In relationships
In thinking
In commitments
In actions
In beliefs

Pg132
You cannot stay where you are and go with God in obedience to His will. Adjustments must come first.Then you can follow in obedience.. Keep in mind - the God who calls you is also the One who will enable you to do His will.

Five Keys for turning A TEST into a TRIUMPH:

1) That which we must FACE - reality of suffering
2) That which we must KNOW - Jesus Christ our comfort
3) That which we must WANT - God's divine will
4) That which we must DO - Entrusting God in every bad time ( He has a purpose)
5) That which we must HOLD FAST TO - God's promises
