Surrender Your Life To God (4 of 7)

God has a will for your life. We are calling that, God's design for you. And this step, surrendering your life to God is based on this truth in God's Word, living by God's will not by your plan. Then in Romans 6:13, the Bible talks about our bodies, our minds, all that we are. It talks about the fact that they will either be instruments for Satan to use or instruments for God to use. And he admonishes us, "give your selves completely to God every part of you." You want to be tools in the hands of God to be used for ...
