Grace for your spirit December 6, 2010

Grace for your spirit
Submit therefore to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. James 4:7

Submission to God is humble obedience to His will. When we do just what we want to do, that is not submission. When we do the things we don't want to do, because it pleases God, we have learned to walk in submission. It is then that we defeat the devil and he will flee from us. It is not easy to be faithful, available, and teachable. It is the tendency of man to go our own way. When we learn to humbly submit to God, it is excellent preparation to submit to everyone else. There are no limitations on that direction from God. Submission to all is one of the true marks of being His disciple.

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit
Philippians 4:23
