Freely Surrender!
The lyrics to Stryper's amazing track Surrender says it all:
Pick it up and make it right
Oh, you can be free
In the dark you need a light
Do you want to make it right
Oh, Jesus Christ is the lover of your soul
And He wants to give you all you need
So freely surrender
Open up unto His Majesty
Freely surrender! God has got you. He's already extended amazing grace and mercy to you:
9But if we freely admit our sins when his light uncovers them, 1:9 Confession of sin is the way to find restoration and unbroken fellowship with God. It cleanses the conscience and removes every obstacle from communion with Christ. Confession does not gain God’s acceptance, for that was won for us forever by the sacrifice of Christ. It is on the basis of being his dearly loved children that we restore intimacy with God through our tenderhearted confession before him. God will always be faithful to restore our first-love passion for him. There is no need to confess the same sins over and over, for that is ignoring the blood of Jesus that cleanses us. All of our sins were paid for on the cross and we can do nothing to remove them, but confession acknowledges God’s faithfulness to restore our intimacy with him. Our Father and our forgiving Redeemer fill the heavens with grace toward every believer, even when we sin. he will be faithful to forgive us every time. God is just to forgive us our sins because of Christ, and he will continue to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 1 John 1:9 TPT
17“God did not send his Son into the world to judge and condemn the world, but to be its Savior and rescue it! John 3:17 TPT
He came to save us, not condemn us! Surrender and come home (Luke 15:11-32).
Your time is now.
