What’s a Believer Total Surrender?

For the Lord’s sake and in His glory, let’s agree to agree in this case.
Let’s reason with one another in open-mindedness okay?
And not close-door or narrow-mindedness. Let’s reason it out okay?
All of us want to go to heaven right?
We want to be saved with our Lord, agreed?

And we do know that it requires us to worship Him in truth and in spirit. We are know that regardless we are in CBC or HPc; the fact lies in Scripture that we are supposed to acquired already the fundamental foundation of a believer in Christ in coming our Lord under His Wings in total surrender that becomes a responsibility to us in our accountability to God, our Father in heaven.To be filled with the Spirit and be led by the Spirit, as the Bible taught us, only then, we can be sure we are truly children of God to Whom we give our absolute surrender.

I support my statement thus far not with too many Bible verses (unlike the past), but just these two, so that you’ll Find them (two verses only), that you may be more readily to accept, right?Acts 2:4 and Ephesians 5:18 are the two verses that i humbly bring them to your attention okay?Now begins our reasoning together; The 1st verse is a narrative given to us what hath taken place, agreed?The 2nd verse however, is a command from above. Do you all agree?

Jesus our great Teacher spoken of it to us in saying, “IF”, yes the big question”if” !!We say we love Him, we ought to have no problem in keeping His divine commandment, logically agreeable, right? ” Keep MY Commandment ” !
That what Jesus said !” Be Filled with the Holy Spirit ” !!
Let’s reason then, do you try to obey His Command given directly to us from the Lord for our own good? Sure you do, because you’d already agreed not to disagree but agree, “Unless two agree”the book of Amos, right? Surely you would not want to miss out in receiving God’s blessing, do you?Therefore, everybody can agree to that now ! Right ?
O yes, you would undoubtedly response, ” Of course, as a believer I obey His Command “.

Good, you are getting closer to the truth.
But what if i bring to your attention to the reminder of His Word :- ” Be filled with the Spirit ” !?

Is that our present daily living? Have we truly obeyed His commandment?One way to gauge this truth is ; upon how much we are willing to sacrifice for the Lord in total submission and absolute surrender unto Him our lord and Saviour. Do we truly submit our daily living to His Will ?Like David submitted even if he is king, the man who was able to touch the heart of God. Why?Absolute surrender and total submission unto Jesus, to gain the divine favour of God in receiving and accepting David’s many prayers through Psalms !So, the choices are in ourselves, to be or not to be; “Smoking or Non-smoking”; and i mean it in the Scriptural sense brethren!Smoking…we burn in hell ; but when we wisely hath chosen “Non-Smoking” meaning chosen the narrow way to Jesus; then, we enjoy not only very clean air and environment in at least standing in the chance to gain entry into the Kingdom of God where’s there’s no night there!But in hell, not only eternal death and eternal burning but total darkness we’ll be in our present living!Let’s reason for a conclusion for our discussion topic today.”Fear God” !That’s the beginning of wisdom (from above); got nothing to do with the wisdom of this world or worldly wisdom that the Bible pointed out !For a moment now, okay?

Let’s put away our varying notions about the filling of the Holy Spirit. But concentrate in pressing on in the realisation of the specific truth that God has this for all of us, His divine counsel ;” My child, I want you filled with the Spirit” !!!Let’s our prayer be okay, “Abba Father, i want it Father the Spirit of our Lord Jesus in us forever, Abba; i am ready Father; i humbly yield myself unto you Lord Jesus our everlasting Father! Come and fill me now, by the Power of Thy Holy Spirit Who is the gentleness of our Lord Jesus Christ, in out absolute surrender and total submission to Thy divine loving instruction blessed unto us and i thank Thee with all my heart in gratitude and reverential fear, my Lord and my God”!Dear brethren,with that i close praying that you are bless; that you are god fearing and last but not least; filled with the Spirit of God until overflowing.

Praise the Lord.i am your brother,
james
