Just say, yes Lord.

“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.” Jeremiah 1:5, NIV

Before you were born, God chose you, called you, and separated you for His use. His hand is on your life. Even if you tried to run away from your purpose like Jonah, God will find you and speak to you. Even if you did something you’re terribly ashamed of and walked away from it all like Moses, God will find you and speak to you. He will find you wherever you are. You may not want to be chosen. You may not want to be called. You may not want to be separated for His use, but the truth is, the decision is not up to you. God calls whom He calls. He chooses whom He chooses. He anoints whom He anoints.

I’ve learned by now to just say, yes Lord.

I remember trying to teach my younger sister how to be submissive to our mother. It was tiring to watch her and my mother go back and forth. I would tell her, “Why are you going through all of that? At the end of the day, you’re her daughter and she’s our mother. Just say, yes, ma’am.” Is it really that hard to just say yes to God? Yes to His plan? Yes to His way? Yes to His calling on your life? You’re His daughter and He’s your heavenly Father. Even when you don’t understand what He’s doing, just say, “Yes, Lord.” Have a submissive spirit to God. You don’t have to understand everything. You don’t have to know everything. Just trust and obey Him because He loves you and He knows what is best for your life.

Prayer: Father God, I’m tired of running from you. Tired of going through unecessery trials. I’m so tired. I surrender everything to you and say yes. Yes! YES! Forgive me and give me a heart that will continue to say yes to you and your will. Be glorified in my life and grace me to handle all that comes with being chosen and called by you. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

    1. YES LORD, YES!!
      If we would only realize how much more our lives will be blessed with joy,peace, health, prosperity (&not just monetary), confidence, abundance…. so much more that HE promised us IF & WHEN we obey, surrender & submit to HIS WILL !!
      So, just say YES to HIM.
      Stop struggling & resisting & procrastinating because His will WILL be done.
      Like my Dad used to say, “We can do this the easy way or the hard way; but, in the end, it will be MY way!” 😇😇🙏🏾🙏🏾👌🏽💕

  6. God thank you for the word yes. I have made a lot of mistakes in the last few weeks. But I still say yes to you that my life will be in your hands.

    1. Thank you truly for these words of encouragement. I am in a position of where I am making some serious changes in my life. As I know that there is a calling on my life I am still fearful of the call because it is unknown. As I want to do what is pleasing to Him, prior to my reading the posting for today, I had a long talk with myself and others in the home regarding this subject. You have confirmed it’s time. Thank you again DOTK

  7. Thank you, it spoke to the very heart of my struggle. Please keep me in your prayers for my future is great but without a forgiving heart we block what God desires to pour into us for growth. So I ask for the sincere prayer of the righteous in God’s eyes to pray for a breakthrough in this most sensitive area of my life that I hold so dear. All issssss well and it is so. God bless this ministry with all that you intended for it to be from the beginning. Selah
