The Power In His Lordship...
When a person yields to the lordship of Jesus Christ, he or she acknowledges His ownership and gives up his or her personal rights. Yielding to the lordship of Jesus Christ also involves total and unreserved obedience. If He is the Lord of your life, you are going to do what He tells you to do.
When the lordship of Jesus is a settled issue in the Christian's life, all other issues are settled. Rev Sam teaches the members of my congregation what the Bible says about serving God; witnessing and soul-winning; stewardship of time, talent, and treasure; faithfulness to God's work; missions; and many other aspects of Christian responsibility.
I contend that if the Christian has settled the lordship issue, then all other issues in his life are also settled. When Jesus is Lord of a person's life, he will fulfill his duties, obligations, and responsibilities with joy.
