HONOR
Karol Horken • February 4, 2021
 One of the definitions of “honor” is to have confidence in someone. We honor God by acknowledging what He has done for us. He looked at my situation — and your situation and said, “They are going to need a Savior. Jesus, would You go to the cross for them so they could be forgiven and set free from their sins — so they could be made righteous and live with us for all eternity?” 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  
 Jesus, even though He agreed to death on that cross, agonized over how it would go. The Bible says, “He went on a little farther and bowed with his face to the ground, praying, My Father! If it is possible, let this cup of suffering be taken away from me. Yet I want Your will to be done, not mine.” (Matthew 26:39 NLT) 
 
 We see here that Jesus had a choice. What an amazing Savior!
 
 We also have a choice. God provided salvation for us, but we must choose to receive it for ourselves. Receiving Christ as your Savior is a very personal decision — one we each 
have to make. You can pray your own prayer of surrender, or I have written one if you need a little help. The important thing is to make it your own by praying for your 
heart.
 
 God, I admit I’m a sinner.
 
 [Trying to live life on my terms.]
 
 I believe Jesus’ death on the cross paid the penalty for my sin.
 
 [Thank You, Jesus, for paying that price for me.]
 
 Jesus, please forgive me of my sins and come into my heart.
 
 [I want to be in continual fellowship with You.]
 
 Be my Savior and the Lord of my life.
 
 [I am so grateful that You saved me from myself.]
 
 Thank You for giving me this fresh, new beginning.
 
 [And please help me live for You—every day of my life.] 
 
 Amen.
 
 If you prayed this prayer for the first time, you have just called upon the name of the Lord. Romans 10:13 says, “Anyone who calls on the named of the Lord will be saved.” 
 
 Welcome to the family of God!

When we call out to God in our struggles and He whispers, “I will help you,” He truly means it.

Cause me to think the way You think--                                                      So I know what to do.                                                                                                            This prayer is based on the following scripture:                                                                                                            Roll your works upon the Lord [commit and trust them wholly to Him;                                                      He will cause your thoughts to become agreeable to His will,                                                                   and] so shall your plans be established and succeed.

It’s natural to be cautious when something seems too good to be true. But one thing you can always count on: God is truly good, and His promises are always true.

When life feels overwhelming, it’s easy to limit God in our thinking. That’s because we measure His ability by what we can picture happening. But the Bible reminds us that God is infinitely greater than what we can imagine.
