There is something that perhaps seems admirable about people dedicating themselves to God, and then rededicating themselves when they feel they've fallen short. But is this really something that God wants from us? Is it up to us to be dedicated to God? Is it about our performance for Him? Does God want our selves to dedicate and rededicate our selves to Him over and over again? Or is it our-selves who have made it about our-selves, and our performance for God, when really He has something entirely different in mind?
While it's great to be dedicated to God, this week we discuss some of these questions and try to shed a little bit of light on how the focus perhaps ought to be more on God's sufficient work in us, rather than our attempts at dedicating and rededicating ourselves to Him.
Here's this week's GIG-Bite, a quick sample of this week's program.
Thanks guys that was very helpful and liberating.
ReplyDeleteI must have rededicated my life way too many times, thank God for a revelation on that. It is not up to me, to make my best effort but it is about Jesus living His life through me.
ReplyDeleteIt is HE that does the will and the do, I just rest in the finished work of Christ.
Grace, Grace and more Grace!
I've heard people say that they rededicated themselves so many times that their rededicator broke! :D
ReplyDeleteIndeed, God didn't ask for our best efforts and dedication. Instead, He gave us His very life!
JOEL WHEN JESUS TOLD THE CROWD TO TAKE UP THEIR CROSS A FOLLOW HIM, WASN'T HE TALKING TO THE "RELIGIOUS" FOLKS WHO SAW HIMM AS TEACHER AND NOT SAVIOUR? I ASK BECAUSE HE GAVE THEM THE LAW, BUT TO THE SINNERS AND THE REST IN THE VERY NEXT CHAPTER HE GAVE THEM GRACE.
