Ultimate Package: Savior and Lord as One
July 2, 2009watch this:
Jesus died on the cross. Jesus laid His life for us. We are saved. All our sins are gone. All the past is gone. We just need to accept Him as our Savior and most importantly as our LORD.
LORDSHIP is a word we often taken for granted. We always say we beileve Jesus died for us; that he saved us from the fires of the hell, that HE is OUR Savior. But then, have we asked ourselves, have we also accepted Him as our LORD? Jesus emphasized on the requirement for salvation and that is to accept Him as OUR LORD and SAVIOR, which means we let him move into our lives, and conquer all the corners of our hearts and all the areas in our lives. When Jesus declared this gift, He wanted us to OBEY. A good servant obeys his MASTER. And when we obey, it should not be an obligation but it should come from the heart just as how a loving child obeys his parents. You see, salvation is a take-it-or-leave-it package. It is accepting Jesus as your LORD and SAVIOR or nothing at all.
LORDSHIP seems so simple but little do we know that we haven’t touched its grounds yet. Have you obeyed GOD? In a stressful day and you have a lot of choices to make, would you consider obeying GOD when faced in decision-making? When you are down and helpless and you wanted to fight, would you OBEY if He tells you to calm down and let it pass? You see, LORDSHIP is more than the act of saying ‘yes, master’. It is like saying “Lord, Take all of Me” rather than saying “Lord, take this”. It is more of surrendering your life to Him and letting Him work rather than handing Him your troubles and waiting for his answers. And unlike a race, it doesn’t stop for it doesn’t have a finish line. It is a continuous walk or run towards spiritual growth. As children of GOD, we need to OBEY, and the first step to obedience is to yield everything. TRUST GOD as you DISCOVER HIS GREATNESS. And once you found the truth and light in HIS word, you will surely OBEY.
