âTo Surrender Is to Conquerâ
If you are anything like me, surrender is hard.
To actively, willfully, and calmly relinquish control? Thatâs real hard.
But in Proverbs 3, we are given a clear command:
âTrust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding.â
But pause with me and notice:
This command comes after the call to remember Godâs law.
Why should we remember it?
Because it adds length of days, long life, and peace.
Because it brings favor and good understanding with God and man.
And what is this law weâre not to forget?
âLet not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart.â
đ Mercy means we donât treat the offender as they deserve.
But this goes both ways:
- We are to remember the mercy God has shown usâthatâs freedom to just be.
- We are to show mercy to othersâthatâs freedom to thrive.
⨠Health cannot exist where there is bondage.
And mercy is one of the greatest forms of freedom.
đ Truth is Jesus Himself.
And in Him, are all things held together (Col. 1:17).
We must not forget that.
So thenâwhen the Word tells us to trust God and not lean on our own understanding, itâs because:
âĄď¸ Naturally, it doesnât make sense to believe that letting go of controlâŚ
âĄď¸ âŚshowing mercy instead of protecting selfâŚ
âĄď¸ âŚsurrendering instead of clinging tightlyâŚ
âŚwill lead to peace, health, and long life.
But itâs the only way.
Itâs not weaknessâitâs the only door.
đĽ To surrender is to conquer.
And today, I invite you to conquer.
