Who Me? Commit?
Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who commit their way to the Lord. In Jesus’ name, amen.
People make decisions all the time. Yet, when a person decides to commit their way to the Lord, it can be life changing. Greg Laurie, of Harvest Christian Fellowship in Riverside, California, uses the term, profession of faith, when referring to people who communicate with the ministry saying they prayed a prayer of salvation during a church service, while listening to a video, or while attending a crusade. A conversion goes beyond a profession of faith because the conversion will stand the test of time.
David, the psalmist, writes in Psalm 37:5-6 (ESV):
“Commit your way to the Lord;
trust in him, and he will act.
He will bring forth your righteousness as the light,
and your justice as the noonday.”
What is your level of commitment? Have you made a profession of faith but held something in reserve? Notice the connection between commit, trust, and subsequent action. Commit and God will act.
