Daily Consecration to God
THAT consecration which daily places the whole being under the control of the Spirit of God, that every capability may be employed in faithful service, glorifies God. Every morning we should give ourselves anew unto God in an unreserved surrender. Every morning we should commit ourselves fully into his keeping for the untried experiences of a new day. “Commit thy way unto Jehovah; trust also in him, and he will bring it to pass. And he will make thy righteousness to go forth as the light, and thy justice as the noonday.” We are the servants of the living God. We are here to represent his character in the earth, to be the channels through which divinity may be revealed to humanity. We are to show forth the excellencies of him who has called us out of darkness into his marvelous light. A practical consecration will be manifested in seeking first the kingdom of God and his righteousness. Things will be viewed from God’s standpoint, and valued according to his estimate of their worth. And the whole life will be the experience of walking by faith.
