Embrace This God-Life


Jesus was matter-of-fact: “Embrace this God-life. Really embrace it, and nothing will be too much for you. This mountain, for instance: Just say, ‘Go jump in the lake’—no shuffling or shilly-shallying—and it’s as good as done. That’s why I urge you to pray for absolutely everything, ranging from small to large. Include everything as you embrace this God-life, and you’ll get God’s everything. And when you assume the posture of prayer, remember that it’s not all asking . If you have anything against someone, forgive —only then will your heavenly Father be inclined to also wipe your slate clean of sins.”
Mark 11:22‭-‬25 MSG

We all know what an embrace is. It is not a casual hug, a pat on the back or a quick kiss on the cheek. An embrace is passionate surrender. Well now, this is what Jesus tells us to give our new life in Him, an all out surrender.

When we give our all to someone, usually, if it is a good relationship, we have an open welcome to all that person has. This is the same with Jesus. Nothing is held back in our relationship with Him. He gives His all, so we?

When we give our all He said we could ask anything in His name and it will be done. Now, that is miracle working stuff. Amen!
