08/12/23 BEWARE UN-SANCTIFIED STUBBORNNESS

A major cause for people failing to move forward in their walk and service to God is their deliberate refusal to let God change their minds.

Though Scripture, God’s leading, spiritual counsel, indicates the need for folks to change their direction, they hold tightly to their viewpoint, understanding, preferences, desires, fears, prejudices, habits, anger, culture.

Being Christian requires total and continuous surrender. It may seem as though God's demands are too great, but the real loss comes by clinging to the world, the things of the world, the wisdom of the world.

We can't take hold of God's blessings if we cling to that which is contrary to God, His nature and His will. We will lose what we have from God if we don't keep everything surrendered to God.
