Something about will power struck me really deeply during yesterday's service. Who can ever deny the power of will power. Who hasn't heard stories of famous sports superstars achieving great sporting feats simply because they believed they could and their strong will power pushed them over the finish line. Personally, haven't you felt particularly hyped up about doing something when the combination of emotions and will power create a surge of victory?
I have. But guess what, will power isn't strong enough. I don't know about anyone else, but I've experienced first hand about how the strongest will power that one may possess is never strong enough to achieve breakthroughs.
I really believe that the answer or the key to achieving things or in this sense to achieve certain breakthroughs in one's walk with God is true repentance. It is not about how how determined we are to achieve a breakthrough; it is about how much we are willing to surrender on to God, so that he can do a transformation in our lives.
God's delight is received upon surrender, not awarded upon conquest.
True repentance brings fruits.
Matthew3:8
Produce fruit in keeping with repentance.
