Have you sacrificed your-self to God?

   Romans 12 verses 1 and 2, «I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, [which is] your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what [is] that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.»

   Living in God means dying for sin. Our bodies mustn’t have anything connected with the works of the world and only then God Him-self will dwell in our life, and only then He will manifest Him-self through us. For often times we ask our-selves why people don’t repent; we witness to them for a long time but they don’t come to God. Simply put this: you haven’t sacrificed your-self to God. Galatians 2:20, «… I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me…»

   We have to present our bodies as a living sacrifice to God and then God will work through us. Do we still pity our-selves? Do we want to let go of our desires? Yes, because our body will become God’s, and everything we used to love before will loose value for us; those things won’t bring us joy…

   Hey, do you still call your-self a Christian? Just know, there is no other way, «If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which [temple] ye are.» (1Co.3:17). We have no other way. God calls us to holiness today. Don’t defile the temple. Present your-self as a sacrifice and accomplish a reasonable service God!
