This week we are talking about what it really looks like to submit. This goes for all types of relationships— lovers, friends, family, this episode is for everyone! Tune in to hear about real struggles with being submitted, but the benefits of submitting to the right one.
As you prepare yourselves for this new episode tomorrow, let’s have a chat! What are you initial thoughts/understandings/experiences when you hear the word “submission”?
As that relationship grows not only do you learn about Him but you learn about yourself. You begin to see your strengths and weaknesses. Submission should lead to growth, not stagnation. (3/3)
When submitting to the right authority, you gain access to 3 things:
1. Resources. When you’re submitted you gain access to things that to you couldn’t obtain on your own. You have to understand that alone you are limited, but with God the impossible becomes reality.
In the same way, relationship with God through Jesus gives you access to the creator of the universe; you have access to a comforter, wise counsel, a mother, a father, a peacemaker, whatever it is you need. (2/3)
What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you hear the word “submission?”
What people/things have you submitted to in your life? What people/things are submitted to you?
Is submission bad? Good? Necessary? A burden?

Proverbs 18:10 • The name of the LORD is a strong tower; the righteous man runs into it and is safe
2 Timothy 1: 7 • For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.
YOU ARE COVERED‼️❤️
With so much chaos and confusion everywhere, the one thing we can find peace in is God Himself. Time and time again He’s proven Himself to be a strongtower and a place of refuge for His people.
Psalm 91: 7 • A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you.
Whatever your “it” is know that it is incomparable to the name of Jesus! We have assurance in our identity through Him 🤍
Even self loves comes from learning how God loves us. Set apart time this week also to receive God’s love. It’s freely given; nothing you have to work for. Search your heart & ask God to correct its posture. Be vulnerable before God. He loves without conditions or boundaries.
CHOOSE LOVE
In any relationship. Love isn’t a feeling but it’s a choice. First in choosing to know God Himself who IS love. Then by bearing love in the way the Word defines it in 1 Corinthians 13: 4-7
“Love is patient and kind;
You can’t give what you don’t have, so take the time today to reflect on the love you’ve given. Not based on your physical desires, but how you’ve extending yourself when it’s not convenient for you. Being a light is being able to live as Jesus did. Selflessly.
John 15:16 • You did not choose Me but I chose you, and appointed you that you would go and bear fruit, and that your fruit would remain, so that whatever you ask of the Father in My name He may give to you.
IT’S IN YOU‼️
Whatever God has called you to, He has qualified you to do.The ideas, the books, songs, businesses, whatever the assignment is God chose you because you He sees the qualities in you. His Spirit is equipping you. He’s sending the resources. BUT IT’S IN YOU. Go forth!
1 Peter 2:9 • you are not like that, for you are a chosen people. You are royal priests, a holy nation, God’s very own possession. As a result, you can show others the goodness of God, for he called you out of the darkness into his wonderful light.
