God’s Condition for His Full Blessing - Part 2

Welcome to the intense podcast for the child and family.

Tuesday, August 31 of the hardest things believers have to do anything.

I gave that as you learn today the position God intends for a believer to take for your good and his glory. God can absolutely change your life revolutionize your life change your sense of circumstances and change the flow of the blessings of God in your life you so how can you promise me that will on the promise you that all I have to say is this is what God says he has never live in those of us have been saved a long time. We live long enough to watch what God does and how he operates and how his ways work out in our lives. We know he will keep his word, not to the last breath. But through all eternity. I wanted eternity will to Romans chapter 12 and the title of this message is God's condition or his full blessing, there is a condition in order to experience God's full blessing. I like you say will know what you mean about full blessing is alarming. I mean, to be able to experience all that God has planned for your life. What is that is what it is, it's whatever he knows is best in every single area of your life is a good God, he has the best and store the issue is not one is best, willing to take, not God's second-best because he offers no second best, but I'm willing to be satisfied with far less than God wants to give God wants to reveal God wants to give himself or whatever abundance he wants to send their way. Are you willing to take a less when you can have the very best will. Romans chapter 12. These first two verses.

He says therefore I urge you, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God which is your spiritual service of worship. And do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind so that you may prove what the will of God is what's that that which is good and acceptable and perfect that when Paul begins this passage by saying therefore what he's doing is referring to everything he's written from chapter 1 all the way through these first 11 chapters, and he's been talking about the sinful, helpless condition of mankind. God's justifying redeeming saving forgiving work on the cross.

The indwelling presence and power of the Holy Spirit to enable us to live the Christian life.

Now he comes and he talks about his mercy that he's bestowed upon us, shown us mercy, and he says that therefore, on the basis of all that God has done for us.

He says not beseech you, I urge you, I plead with you to present your body a living holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, which is the reasonable right thing to do and he says stop allowing yourself to be part of the world's mobile. He says that's not the best way. The best way is God's way. Sacrifice met with that in mind I will talk about this one condition in order to receive God's full blessing that not many conditions that is one ultimate condition that is the bottom line to receive God's best.

And when you lick lick lick of this passage is very evident here that God's condition for full blessing calls for a full surrender God's condition for a full blessing calls for a full surrender. What is he say I urge you, brother.

The mercies of God, to present your body is not simply talking about your physical body, but that your whole being, body, soul and spirit. The total be as a sacrifice living holy sacrifice, acceptable to God. God opens his best, he has prepared his best, and the truth is I can either be satisfied with less than God has to offer. All I can ask the question God, what would you do with me if I gave you my whole life, what would you send my way if I open my life without reservation, without any bargaining without any kind of of holding back in any area of my life. What would you do, what could you do what you willing to do what you want to do one thing for certain, God is prepared the very best that he and his infinite wisdom and unconditional love can possibly provide for every single one of his children eternity will to Romans chapter 8 Romans chapter 8, a passage that you sent me onto circling memorize it.

Have you want to handle it but certainly marketing your Bible.

Listen, this verse, verse 31 says what then shall we say to those things. If God is for was who is against us. Listen God is for every single one of his children. He is on the side of every single one of his children. He is looking out for every single one of his children, so he said he who did not spare his own son. Speaking of God nuts. He said he did not spare Jesus, but delivered him over for us all that is in the crucifixion, how will he not also with him. That is with Christ freely give us all things. Listen not stimulated but abundantly freely give us all things are his and God has a plan for us. He says will not wanting a good thing he's still in our goodness for us and he says here's what I want you to see if I did reserve my only begotten son of God and keep him to myself and I gave you the very best that I have is that not an indication of what you can expect from me in your life, you can expect the best you can expect the very best that God could possibly conceive and plan for your life. That is the very character of God now soliciting about something. Why do we reject. Why do we recoil. Why do we resist a full surrender of our life because will say I know is God. I know he loves me unconditionally know it has the best for me. I know he always do what's right for me and yet listen we will declare that we believe every bit of that same time. When it comes the full swing that we resist it we recall the bracelet with the words of total surrender. I want to hear about God's love and goodness answer prayer surrender and yield in this and sacrifice, not like those words what we protest God's idea of owning absolute control of your life.

You know when I hear somebody say while Telluride. Now I'm going to have it my way only for a while brother only for a while. It is negative how much they accumulate, how much prestige, prominence, power, and all the rest you know what when you having it your way that something very important missing in your life. Emphasize that the things that people trying to fill up their life with have no eternal value whatsoever is only one thing that can make you joyous.

There's only one thing that can give you surreal security and that is a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. All that other stuff is just stuff it's passing whale turned to ashes on these days. But what about why is it we recoil number one fear is interesting. The attitude people have about God. For example, somebody says will you know I'm just afraid to make a full surrender because I'm afraid of what God may require of me now what does that say it says that my idea about God is this, he sitting up in heaven and he's just waiting for the day for me to give full surrender. Then he got put it on me. That's the attitude people have so people are afraid. But you know it's false fear. You and I have the fear we have an unconditional love and God. He's provide the best pieces I've plan the best for you.

Have a plan for you.

These visits will will present good not calamity so people are afraid that afraid this run. Listen now ask is have discretion God moves me to give myself fully and absently told to him know what is not afraid of, and if you will analyze what you're afraid of it. It has no basis whatsoever, but there's a second reason the second reason is because of our own sense of selfishness. We don't want even God dictating to our life telling us what to do, telling us how to do it and telling us when the we just don't want God doing that and we will and the prey go to church.

Read the Bible, do all of the things that we don't want God telling us had one outline limit as a question. Does that mean that you and smart about how when I life in God is. That's what the implication is easy. There has to be a reason there is a reason in our thinking on exams. A good reason the right reason, there has to be a reason that we are responding to God by withholding from him out total being out total sale has to be a reason.

It certainly can't be because he's bad because he's evil because you mistreat us or any of those things it has to be because something in our thinking is not correct. Why would you not surrender your life totally and completely to God who has your best in mind these plan the best for you this promise to the best who loves you unconditionally is written name in the Lamb's book of life is forgiven you of your sins's gonna take you home to heaven and spend all eternity with you.

Why would you not acting any other way but in full surrender doesn't even fit who we are, who are weak with the purchase sons and daughters. Plus we owned by we owned by him. He has the right soon as we have no right and imagine us telling an omnipotent God, you can have all of me would be like this can say I'm not going to write for you anybody whom the Lord has called to preach the gospel division Villa serve him in a way, my friend, for you to tell Almighty a sovereign God that you not going to do. Have you thought about how serious that is God's call. You teach a Sunday school class of young boys who need a father image. They come from broken homes, no father looking for somebody to be an influence the life you say God I'm not going to do that you listen, you realize what you telling God when he owns you he possesses you he has the right to control.

He could swipe you out and never even met one of his divine eyes and you telling him no, my friend, you have been thinking very wisely that you gonna tell God know about any aspect of your life. He has a right to call for full surrender. We protested because was selfish and because we have an erroneous view of God and because our attitude is such that we think he's going to abuse us in some fashion that with that in mind, let's get on the hard cold fact of what is and what is involved in this whole issue of making closer and I want you to jot down three words. Here's what is involved in making a full surrender of your life to Christ and remember this, say, to think when you got saved. More than likely nobody ever told you what you've heard this morning, you just got saved you. They told usually go to heaven when you.net was good enough.

You then you did the best you could. You read your bottom price of not being critical. I know executives.

Nobody told me anything about that. He and so you still a struggle to your life and made decisions on your own, never thinking about for example, the gods interested in a job God.

Since your family God. Since the children Gazans where you go to school. I would use a tomatoes decision God's minutes and every single one of us on not being critical in dissecting sin. I want you to understand something. Three words. The first word is definite definite. The second word is deliberate and the third word is voluntary. Think about this. By definite I mean a specific decision by deliberate I mean carefully evaluated thought about it thought. Voluntary. That is, it is an act of your will or choice that you made what is involved in a full surrender. It is a definite deliberate voluntary transfer of undivided possession, control and use of our entire being, body, soul and spirit to the Lord Jesus Christ, to whom we rightfully belong as the total being transferred. Listen voluntary transfer of undivided control, use, possession to Jesus Christ, to whom we rightfully belong.

That's what a full surrender requires a deliberate definite voluntary transfer. What we're saying is this person God. From this point on. I've had it my way, but from this point on, it's your call, whatever you want.

That's what I want.

That's what I'm gonna do whatever you require is what I'm in the right you say go. That's where I'm going, whatever you want. That's what I will and I don't want it. I'm going to trust you and obey you.

Even when I don't want you say maybe something in my flesh. It's not easy oftentimes to be obeyed and you know what, it's not a matter that always feel good about it is the matter that I acknowledge his right to require in a life fully surrendered has transferred. Listen undivided so that I don't have.

I'm not running from the show and he's running Parmesan that is not part of being part of him doing this not part of his possessions and I'm claiming some myself undivided undivided possession, control and use of our total being, body, soul and spirit transferred to Jesus Christ and right LeBlanc. Only then is he practically the Lord of my life is what that requires is what he calls for Lord. Here's my life.

No reservations. No bargaining total absolute surrender is that difficult as it is. Listen to this. That's why he sent the Holy Spirit to enable you and me. Listen to trust him, that when we yield everything to him and surrender everything to him in a definite deliberate voluntary decision on our part that from that point on. Watch this if he owns us he possesses us. He's responsible for us God assumes full responsibility for the life fully surrendered to him. You cannot lose you soon. I would and is not a one time thing. Listen carefully.

I do believe that there is a point in the person's life where they understand what we are talking about and for the first time in their life. They recognize genuinely truly recognize that he has a right for absolute control and they make a decision, Lord Jesus, I choose to make a definite deliberate voluntary transfer of all possession, all control and all use of my life. No exception. No reservation transferred to you, Lord Jesus, to do with me what you choose when, where, and how I think there is a definite time now. Following that every time a decision comes up that would cause me to want to lean and move in from some of the direction I have to renew I must renew my position fully surrendered. Yes, Lord fully surrendered. This is one of the wonderful things about your time of prayer and meditation. Because what happens every time you get an argument you are not days a week away again to the word read. Ask God to speak about hard. What happens is a wonderful time and should certainly be daily at a minimum daily essay Lord. When you check my life.

Is there anything that I tried to take control of the day is any aspect of my life Lord that I'm trying to want to manipulate, I just lay that down. I just reaffirmed totals full surrender. I want you to be absolute boss because I trust you much better than I trust myself, you know what it's really very simple. You look at it obey God leave all the consequences to him because he assumes full responsibility for the life fully surrendered to him. He calls for a full surrender was because he wants the best for us and those who will, in the vacant surrender will experience a joy. They have never known a piece they have never known a confidence they have never known a sense of security.

They have never experienced that is the gift and so much more if you will, in the trust him with your whole life, which belongs to him anyway and what you saying in essence is this no longer will I have it my way. From this point on, I wanted your way and father how grateful we are.

You put up with us for so long. You watch a struggle and fret and fume over things and there you sit upon your throne with the very best that you could possibly offer waiting to bestow it upon us when we position ourselves in obedience and surrender to you to pour out your blessing upon us. I pray that every person hears this message would stop and think seriously about their life where they're headed. What they may have missed but they don't want to miss and be wise enough to say all to Jesus I surrender all to him I freely give. I will ever love and trust in his presence.

But the problem Holy Spirit dated fully committed fully surrendered, but we ask it in Jesus name, amen.

Thank you really think the particular condition for his full blessing if you like to know more about child family more intense ministry that night and had a lagging after the presentation of intense ministry in Atlanta, Georgia
