Good Morning Beauties!
Take a look at the photo above. Do you see the intensity in her eyes to be rescued? Have you been in that place? Are you there now? Are you calling out to the One who saves? Look again. Do you see the strength of the saving hand? He is strong. He is able. He will save. Selah.
We’ve all been desperate for the saving grace of Jesus, and all He requires is our surrender. He’s already done all the work on the cross. We just need to call out to Him. “You called out to me in your time of trouble and I rescued you. I came down from the realm of the secret place of thunder, where mysteries hide. I came down to save you.” Psalm 81:7 The Passion Translation. Will you call out to Him once again today with a deeper level of surrender? Selah.
Take a moment to worship God for His saving grace that rescued you.

Our sanctification, (being made Holy) comes from the Holy Spirit. Just as Jesus completed the work for our salvation on the cross, we are sanctified by the work of the Holy Spirit when we surrender and follow Him in obedience.
Scripture tells us, “You are to be holy, because I am holy.” 1 Peter 1:16. Scripture notes go on to say, “Everything about God is holy. True holiness includes justice, mercy, truth, and righteousness. To be holy is to be absolutely devoted to God in all that we do, demonstrating who he is to the world. Holiness surrounds God’s throne and we are seated with him in heavenly places (Ephesians 2:6). The Hebraic concept of holiness is “set apart”; that is, we are a people set apart for God, even as God is “set apart” from all gods. Grace has imbedded holiness into our lives, yet we are to make right choices and to yield to Christ and God’s Word as the Holy Spirit lives in us.”
Are you allowing the Holy Spirit to have free reign in your life? Is there an area that’s off limits to God? What lies are the enemy telling you preventing your complete surrender? Selah.
Love and Blessings,
