Do you remember how eager you were to seek God when you first began attending the Church?<\/p>
\nYou used to seek with all your strength, and didn’t care what you had to do to be delivered and to receive the Holy Spirit.
\n
\nAnd after some time, you’re not that eager anymore, isn’t it right?! You no longer seek the Holy Spirit like you should, and you probably haven’t received His baptism yet because you are scared to put all your strength to receive It.
\nGive your life to the Lord Jesus, or be afraid to pay the price?<\/p>\n

You might have many fears or be going through what I just mentioned. You’ve been attending the Church for several years now and you constantly tell the Pastor:
\n“Everything is okay, Pastor … I’m in the faith!”
\nBut those aren’t your thoughts and your actions don’t reflect on what you say.<\/p>\n

I’m sure you have heard or seen many testimonies. They all say the same thing that they surrendered completely to God, that a perfect sacrifice was made.
\nThey were in total dependence on God and received a new life. They surrendered themselves and received the Holy Spirit.<\/p>\n

If at this moment you agree that you’ve seen many testimonies like that, then why are you still afraid to give yourself and make the perfect Sacrifice and be totally dependent of God?
\nI would like to give you, the one reading this post, a tip:<\/p>\n

Stop being or thinking like this! It’s time to give yourself completely to God without reservations. Put all your strength in “being” of God and pleasing Him. Start seeking Him again like in the beginning of your faith.<\/p>\n
