Title: Your Commitment Level

Memorize: having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away! 2 Timothy 3:5 (Nkjv)

Deuteronomy 10:12-13 (Nkjv):

[12] “And now, Israel, what does the Lord your God require of you, but to fear the Lord your God, to walk in all His ways and to love Him, to serve the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul, 

[13] and to keep the commandments of the Lord and His statutes which I command you today for your good?

Message:

The call to salvation is far more than just being saved from sin; it is a call to commitment. What is commitment? Commitment is defined as a pledge or promise to do something. It’s also a state of being dedicated or devoted to something. If you can all the day you gave your life to Christ, you would remember that you said you would give Him

everything. Unfortunately, many believers are guilty of breaking that promise to the Lord as they find it difficult to study God’s word, win souls, or give their resources to advance His work, yet they claim they are committed to him.

If you find it difficult to let go of some bad habits, it means that your level of commitment to God is low, and you will be unable to access the power in His word. You will also not be able to perform certain miracles. Check your commitment level today and do the needful.

Reflection:

Are you truly committed to the Lord?

Hymn 9

1 O Jesus, I have promised 

to serve Thee to the end; 

be Thou forever near me, 

my Master and my Friend; 

I shall not fear the battle 

if Thou art by my side, 

nor wander from the pathway 

if Thou wilt be my Guide. 

2 O let me feel Thee near me, 

the world is ever near; 

I see the sights that dazzle, 

the tempting sounds I hear; 

my foes are ever near me, 

around me and within; 

but, Jesus, draw Thou nearer, 

and shield my soul from sin. 

3 O let me hear Thee speaking 

in accents clear and still, 

above the storms of passion, 

the murmurs of self-will; 

O speak to reassure me, 

to hasten or control! 

O speak, and make me listen, 

Thou Guardian of my soul!

4 O Jesus, Thou hast promised 

to all who follow Thee 

that where Thou art in glory 

there shall Thy servant be; 

and, Jesus, I have promised 

to serve Thee to the end; 

O give me grace to follow, 

my Master and my Friend!
