Promises of God
The Sacrifice of Surrender:
Our God sacrificed His only son Jesus to die on the cross for our sins. When Jesus came to earth in the form of a man He made so many sacrifices for us even to His own life. He surrendered His will to the Father's will and gave up His life so that we could be saved. He said " Not my will but thy will be done." We can experience His unending love and grace! Romans 12:1 tells us to offer our bodies as a living sacrifice: Therefore, I urge you brothers and sisters, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God, this is your true and proper worship.
God's Word declares:
" Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies.
1Corinthians 6:19-20
Therefore be imitators of God as beloved children. And walk in love, as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.
Ephesians 5:1-2
"This is my commandment that you love one another as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends if you do what I command you."
John 15: 12-14
Then he said to his disciples "The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few."
Mathew 9:37
