• “It takes spiritual authority to bless others. Many Christians say, “God bless you,” but one clearly senses that although the words express a kind wish, they lack real spiritual authority.” – Basilea Schlink

Yes, Lord by Nancy Leigh DeMoss 05/10/11

 

“I never knew teenagers could be so difficult!”

“My husband’s getting sicker every day.”

Nancy Leigh DeMoss: Over the years I’ve watched women walk through some incredibly difficult, complex situations.

“There was another round of lay-offs, and we didn’t make it this time.”

“Those memories keep coming back.”

Nancy: I’ve discovered that in every circumstance, the real issue is this: Will I surrender to God’s hand and purpose in my life?

If you’re in the middle of one of those difficult, complex situations, let me remind you of Jesus’ example. He was asked to drink a bitter cup full of all the vilest sin of the world.

“‘Not my will, but Yours be done.’ Lord, if you could pray that, then I can pray it, too.”

Are you resisting God’s choices in any area of your life? Why not wave the white flag of surrender and say, “Yes, Lord.”

With Seeking Him, I’m Nancy Leigh DeMoss.

  • “Sin is more dangerous than wild bears, more deadly than blazing forest fires. Ask Nebuchadnezzar, who lost his mind because he refused to deal with his pride. Ask Samson, who was reduced to a pathetic shred of a man because he never got control over the lusts of his flesh. Ask Achan and Ananias and Sapphira, who all lost their lives over “small,” secret sins.” – Nancy Leigh DeMoss
