The surrendered life, Christian Life

 As Christians we are called to a life of personal commitment: it means that  the mind, body and soul are given to our personal savior Jesus, the great honor to have you as a follower of Christ is to follow the footsteps of the Master and follow his teachings.

 Text: Exodus 32:29 And Moses said,  consecrate yourselves today to the Lord, that He may bestow on you a blessing this day, for every man has opposed his son and his brother. In this verse and the rest of the passage (see Exodus 32).

 We see that God's people paid heavily for having disobeyed God, after God had given Moses the 10 Commandments, the people are desperate and tired of waiting for Moises, they made themselves a golden calf for the purpose of worship, this is where God calls his people  you and I, to wait for his answer  and trust that he will respond, this is part of the consecration, trust completely in God.

YOUR HEART

 Proverbs 23:26 My son, give me  your heart, and let your eyes observe my ways.  First of all, in this verse God calls us "son", is a great honor that  the creator of the universe loves us so much,  that He puts us in a category so important, that God gave us free will, or freedom to choose our decisions,  good or bad, but when the Bible says" Give me" indicates the desire of God to choose Him as part of our lives, Jesus will not force us to obey or follow him, He just inviting us to be his disciples.

 In this Bible study I followed a specific topic,  I recommend visiting here for information on how to learn to follow the word of God using verses by topics. Receive spiritual growth in reading scripture verses by topic, for new converts or experience readers of the Bible.
