Prayer of Surrender: "Not my will, but thine, be done"

“The Prayer of Surrender”
Surrender is such a disturbing word! Who wants to surrender? We want to conquer! To control! To possess! To overcome! We prefer a language of power more than one of weakness, and “surrender” surely belongs to the language of weakness, doesn’t it? 
 
Jesus didn’t think so. In fact, it is arguable that the greatest overcoming He ever did was to surrender to the cup that God had assigned Him to drink. He knew that only then could the salvation of men and the forgiveness of sin be accomplished.
 
But His surrender was not an easy or painless journey, and a journey it was. In this book, you will walk with Jesus through His journey and hopefully learn much about prayer. And perhaps you might even overcome that one thing that stands between you and surrender, between you and answered prayer, between you and enjoying the will of God for your life. And through that, may God help you to become a channel of blessing to many.
 
A language of weakness? I don’t think so. Instead, you will find that spiritual strength comes through surrendering to God, through drinking the cup He has assigned you. Are you ready to learn how? 
 
Then good reading my friend!
