Romans 6:13 (New International Version)
13Do not offer the parts of your body to sin, as instruments of wickedness, but rather offer yourselves to God, as those who have been brought from death to life; and offer the parts of your body to him as instruments of righteousness.
This verse I came across when reading the purpose diven book. Hmm is actually quite true. When we been brought from death to life by the blood of Christ we must be willing to surrender to God daily. But God will guide us step by step He know us for nt being perfect,. Day by day we will be instruments of righteousness. Is will be simple things like being obdience to the little things. Serving God like a servent even though u dun like it. But God will nv short give us. He is a God of love, by surrendering to Him , He is preparing greater things for us. Evening if may seem suffering but by trusting God even if is suffering but it will fullfill His purpose I will do it. Because He first love me.
by the way I have also have other version verse i dunno why i pick this. But I think is because it is clearer here.
Romans 6:13 (New Living Translation)
13 Do not let any part of your body become an instrument of evil to serve sin. Instead, give yourselves
completely to God, for you were dead, but
now you have new life. So use your whole body as an instrument to do what is right for the glory of God.
