Let’s Remain Focused on the Goal

Phillipians 1:20

If we fail to surrender to Jesus the aspects of our lives that He has requested, we will experience a profound sense of humiliation. Paul's statement can be seen as expressing his unwavering commitment to achieving his maximum potential for the sake of glorifying God.

Attaining such a high level of determination is solely dependent on one's willpower, and not subject to discussion or logical argument.

At that time, it is a complete and irreversible relinquishment of one's volition. Excessive self-centeredness hinders us from making decisions, despite our attempt to disguise it as concern for others.

When we contemplate the potential consequences for others if we comply with Jesus' summons, we are essentially implying to God that He lacks understanding of the implications of our obedience. Be concise— He is aware.

Exclude all other thoughts and focus solely on presenting your best efforts to God devoting yourself entirely to achieving the highest level of dedication.

I am resolute in my commitment to be wholly devoted to Him and Him alone.

My unwavering resolve to support His Holiness. "Whether it signifies survival or demise, it holds no significance!"

Refer to Philippians 1:21.

Paul was resolute in his determination to carry out God's will without any hindrance. Prior to embracing God's will, it is

imperative that a crisis arises in our life. This occurs due to our tendency to be unresponsive to the subtle prompts from God. He leads us to the location where He expects us to provide our full effort for Him, and we commence to engage in a discussion or argument.

Subsequently, he deliberately creates a situation that forces us to make a definitive choice either in favor or against. That moment represents a significant juncture in our lives. If you are facing a crisis in any aspect of your life, completely and permanently submit your will to Jesus.
