DAY # 1: LORDSHIP: A CRUCIAL ISSUE
MEMORY VERSE: “But why do you call me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ and not do the things which I say?” Luke 6:46
Lordship teaching is probably the most critical issue of the Christian life! This is because Lordship requires us to be honest, transparent and open to the teaching of the Holy Spirit. Jesus Christ doesn’t come in various installment packages. You do not receive Him today as your Savior and then 5 years from now, you make Him your Lord. He is Lord, already. See Acts 2:36!
You cannot accept what Jesus gives (which is salvation) without receiving who Jesus is and He is Lord! We must acknowledge that Lordship and submit to His Lordship and follow Him as Lord in the totality of our lives!
This week is going to be challenging and probably very convicting. The Holy Spirit will challenge your heart and cause you to ask the really hard questions about your personal commitment to Christ!
Submission to His Lordship is more than a one-time commitment. It involves a daily yielding and a daily, consistent following after Christ. Lordship is a daily commitment to Jesus Christ.
Check out the word “Lord” in the following salvation passages:
Romans 10:9-10
Romans 10:13
Acts 16:31
