RICK WARREN DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY 8TH MAY 2025.
Surrender means leaving the future to God. Proverbs 3:5-6 says, “Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths” (ESV).
What area of your life is not surrendered to God? Maybe you’ve surrendered the “kitchen” and the “living room” of your life. But what about the bedroom? What about the closet of your life? What about the garage? What area of your life is not surrendered?
Some of you have not surrendered your sex life to God. You say, “I know God says sex is only for marriage, but I’m going to do it my way.” That’s why you’re under stress.
Some of you have not surrendered your finances to God. You say, “I know God doesn’t want me to be stingy with my money. He wants me to learn to be generous, but I can’t afford to.” And that’s why you’re under stress.
Some of you have not surrendered your relationships to God. You say, “I know I should forgive that person who hurt me, but I’m not about to forgive them.” That’s why you’re under stress.
Some of you have a secret sin that you have not surrendered to God. You have a habit that you have not surrendered to God. You have a hurt or a hang-up that you have not surrendered to God.
Some of you have never surrendered your life to Jesus Christ. You’ve never surrendered yourself to be baptized. You haven’t found a church family.
You need to surrender. Surrender is holding up your flag and saying, “God, the war is off. I’m not going to fight you anymore. I want serenity, not stress.”
Aren’t you tired of being at war with God? Wave the flag of surrender—it’s the ultimate expression of faith.
