Scripture: Luke 22:42 (KJV)
“Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.”
Empowering Devotion:
Renewal brings us back to a place of surrender—a place where we lay down our own plans, desires, and ambitions to embrace the perfect will of God. Even Jesus, facing the weight of the Cross, prayed a prayer of surrender: “Nevertheless, not my will, but thine, be done.”
There are moments in every believer’s journey where we must renew our commitment to follow God fully, even when the path is difficult or unclear. True surrender is not passive; it is an active choice to trust God’s plan over our own understanding.
Today, God is calling you to renew your yes. To declare again that His will is greater, His way is perfect, and His plan is better than anything you could design for yourself. There is peace, power, and purpose in surrendering to His divine will.
What have you been holding onto? What are you afraid to release? As you reflect, remember that every time you surrender, God brings greater glory, blessing, and fulfillment. Renew your commitment today—let your heart echo the words of Christ: “Nevertheless, not my will, but thine, be done.”
Inspiring Prayer:
Father, I thank You because I know You hear me. Let Your will be done in my life as I renew my commitment to You. I surrender every desire, every plan, and every burden into Your hands.
Teach me to trust You completely, even when I do not understand. Help me to walk in obedience and faith, knowing that Your will for my life is perfect. Strengthen me to follow You fully, without fear or hesitation.
Thank You for loving me enough to lead me on the path of purpose. Today, I declare—nevertheless, not my will, but Thine be done. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
