Paul the Apostle was one of those who could not resist absolute surrender to God. He was so overwhelmed by the life he experienced in Christ that he said, Acts 21:13 “…for I am ready not to be bound only, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.” What commitment. What devotion. What level of oneness he had reached with his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. What abandonment of his life to the will of God and to the Spirit of the living Christ within him. This is our model today: it is our example. Those who have been chosen. Those who hold the seeds of greatness in them — God’s men and women of destiny today. Those who God has called out of darkness into His marvelous light, you have no other way. You are on this solid rock to stay. Your confession, your affirmation should always be: My life, My all, O Lord I Give.
