Let Jesus be the King of your Soul

Text: 1 John 4:9-12 , Galatians 2:20, Romans 12:1-2, Jeremiah 10:23

The Kingdom of God is within us.(Luke 17:21).We should yield our soul(mind, will and emotion) to the ruler ship of King Jesus inside our spirit man . We should love righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Ghost and hate iniquity

God made us to be dependent on Him. Until we yield our soul to the king, we will not be happy and cannot fulfill our destiny on this earth.

We should present our bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable unto God daily(Romans 12:1-2), and let the Potter walk in us to will and do of his good pleasure(Philippians 2:13) by renewing our mind to do his good, acceptable and perfect will

We should live our life through Christ. We should always enquire “Lord, what will you have me do, say or think, wear, eat “ etc. Daniel purposed in his heart not to defile himself with the king’s meat (Daniel 1:8), and in Daniel 1:17, he was given wisdom, understanding and knowledge along with his other three brethren after he enquired from God.

Joseph purposed in heart not to sin against God, and God helped him(Genesis 39 :9) .Pharaoh confirmed divine wisdom operating in Joseph(Genesis 41:39).

We should purpose in our heart to live our lives in word in deed and in thoughts all to the glory of God.(1 Corinthians 10:31). The fear of God is to depart from evil, keep our tongue from speaking evil, our lips from speaking lies; seek peace and pursue peace wherever we are. (Psalm 34:11-14)
