My surrender is based on what I see

God has given us the power to change our mind like it says in Romans 12:2 do not be confirmed to this world but be transformed by the renewing of the mind. 

We all know that one of the biggest attack that the enemy uses is attacking our mind because as soon as he has our mind he has everything of us. There many things to love about God and one of them is how patient He is with us like it says in 1Corinthians 13. 

Growth does not happen over night, it takes time, it takes learning how to surrender, it takes patience, and if God is so patient with us why cant we be patient with ourselves. 

We all here about the wilderness process, breakthrough happens when we understand that wilderness is not just about you being taken out from Egypt, also about Egypt being taken out of you. there are patterns, things that have been installed in us that we need to let God remove and replace with His word. 

He knows what we are able to handle, and if He removes all at once, it might affect us and not in a positive way, and Gods desire is for us to draw closer (James 4:8).

As much as many want to deny God, whenever one has a true encounter with Christ, you can no longer deny the truth, but all you want to do is start living out the truth. looking back God allows us to go through so many things, and I truly believe that for many He allows us to hit rock bottom to only realize that He is that ROCK at the bottom, He is our God that never changes and always remains faithful.

We all have a choice in this world, and it all comes down to who has you, does your actions show that God has you or that Satan has you. It’s either the Kingdom of Light or the kingdom of darkness. Many go after the self seeking desires, but its time to ask what are those seeking desires attach to, are they connected to exalting me or exalting God.

Full Surrender is allowing God to have His will over your life and seeing life the way the Lord want you to see it. 

Recognizing is a big part of seeing through Gods lens, we need to recognize what are the things that are pulling us away from God, recognize that the decision that I make are my responsibility, and my actions are either going to bring a positive affect or a negative affect. recognition brings awareness of the problem that needs to be addressed.

After recognizing comes releasing things to the Lord, allowing the Holy Spirit to teach, guide, lead us into all righteousness. 

Acknowledge that even though I have been doing things a certain way my entire life, I might be wrong, and if I am wrong allowing God to correct us, and from there just building that relationship with God, and walk on this journey with Him.
