MESSAGE:
Many years ago, when I was a teacher in the secondary school, I took a mattress from the hostel and brought it to my house to make one of my guests comfortable. After seven years, I gave my life to Christ, then one day the Holy Spirit reminded me of the mattress. I couldn’t return it in the current state, so, I enveloped cash totaling the equivalents of seven mattresses and sent it to the school management.
There was another time, I wanted to post a personal letter, so, I took one of the envelopes in my office. As I was about to put the letter in the envelope, the Holy Spirit cautioned me. I reluctantly stopped and asked, How expensive can the envelope even be? He replied, If it’s that cheap, buy yours.
My dear child, let your obedience to God be complete. Return whatever doesn’t belong to you in your possession right now. Let nothing hinder you from getting blessed here on earth and also making it to heaven.
KEY POINT:
Do you have what is not yours in your possession?
HYMN: ALL TO JESUS I SURRENDER
- All to Jesus I surrender,
All to Him I freely give;
I will ever love and trust Him,
In His presence daily live.
CHORUS
I surrender all, I surrender all;
All to Thee, my blessed Savior,
I surrender all.
- All to Jesus I surrender,
Humbly at His feet I bow;
Worldly pleasures all forsaken,
Take me, Jesus, take me now. - All to Jesus I surrender,
Lord, I give myself to Thee;
Fill me with Thy love and power,
Let Thy blessing fall on me. - All to Jesus I surrender,
Now I feel the sacred flame;
O the joy of full salvation!
Glory, glory to His name!
