THE LIFE OF GREAT SURRENDER TO GOD’S FAITHFULNESS

November 16

hildren, do you remember how strong Samson of the Bible was? If you read his story (Judges), you will find that his great supernatural strength came from the fact that he never cut his hair as a Nazarite dedicated to the Lord. He was raised up to bring judgment on the enemies of God. Your Father in Heaven uses the example of this strong man to tell you how very strong you too can be in the Lord if you meet certain conditions. First, you have been born again, this is good. Second, I call unto you to dedicate your life to your Father in Heaven. I call to you to surrender your body as "the temple of the Holy Spirit," (I Corinthians 3:16) which allows you to commit to the fact that you will allow me to cleanse you of things which will pollute and cause your body, mind and spirit to become unclean. Think this thought, "Father, I surrender, and will surrender to you all kinds of uncleanness from my former walk in sin. Whatever I find within me I will subject it to the blood covering of the Lord Jesus to cleanse and make it holy. Child, if you want to be very useful to the Kingdom of your Father, and bear wonderful fruit as the Bible tells you then you must set a high standard of surrender and loving of the word of your Father. Search through the Bible regularly in a prayerful, submitted manner. I will begin to speak to you, mostly in the forms of divine impressions. Then sometimes I will speak to you in circumstances which will allow you to know that it is the Holy Spirit speaking. As Samson, you need a fresh anointing out of heaven on your mind, body and spirit on a regular basis. This anointing comes upon you as you enter obedience to the commands sent to you by your Father in Heaven, and it is expressed through your fulfilling the purposes and will of your Lord. You will find quickly that the Father is pleased with you as you refuse to follow the walk of the flesh fulfilling the lusts thereof. You are not being called to be weird or "strange" as though no one else had ever been called to do this. I have many who love my word far more than they love their own lives. Will you be as Samson? Will you refuse to give excuses for cooperating with sin in your life? If so, I will visit you and form you into the blessed image of the Son, the Lord Jesus. Also, pray the Father for the infilling of the Holy Spirit which will serve as the anointing to endorse the work of the Lord in your life. This infilling is much likened to the hair upon Samson's head. He received overwhelming strength to defeat the enemy through his being dedicated to the Lord. Blessings!

Prayer

Father, in the name of Jesus I have been lulled into a sleep state at times, oblivious of the fact that I need to bring myself in love and surrender to you, dedicating myself to the full service to your Kingdom. As Samson, make me strong in your strength, Father. I don't want to fall short. Guide me so that I will become an anointed vessel of honor to you. In the name of Jesus, I pray, amen!
