TOTAL COMMITMENT: Making the Extreme Sacrifice

  • My Memory Verse: Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is--his good, pleasing and perfect will. Romans 12:2 NIV
  • My Prayer Request: Summer Time Fun; CDO Youth Minisrty; My job; My online ministry
  • My Quotes: The wolrd can offer us great gagets, toys, movies, video games like PS2, having the coolest car to drive, but this is all just while on earth! You can't take what we have on earth to heavn... NO you can't!!

Life is full of many pressure from temptation, friends, work and sometime family members. In the end its hard to be like Christ and follow him like a disciple... so how can we as Christians have 100% total commitment for Jesus? How can we continue to grow towards Jesus? Today we need to make some changes and make some sacrifces by taking one for the team!

Romans 12:1-8   Living Sacrifices

First we need to remember that the world is a temporay home for us... heavn is our real home! Paul tells us not to be comformed by the world (v.2) but be comformed by God's will. this means we need to give our whole body and mind to God, leting the dark sin areas be comformed by God into light. Yes we need to pray before God and tell him of the hidden secrets we may have that we haven't let go. Turning to God mind and body isn't easy but it starts with admitting how much commited we realy are!

We are ALL part of God's plan of discipleship and we need to have total commitment in order to work as one body. Come to God and seek the gifts that He has given you through prayer. Maybe there is anea where you are active in your church... God is showing you a messege!! its time to have a reality check and see how much commitment we realy have! Are you taking the mission God has given you? Are you comformed by God or by the world? Are you ready to give yor ALL, even the dark hidden secrects? Are you ready to turn to God? God already made that extreme sacrifice on the cross... will you do the same?

Application through Prayer:

Father let us know your plans, that through you we may have total commitment in our life 24/7 becoming more like you. Give us the strenght, encourage as we face many challenges each day on earth. We konw this is only for a short time, but let us be comformed by YOU and not by the world! Thank you for making that extreme sacrifice on the cross... in Jesus name AMEN!
