Romans 12:1-2
Big Idea: The Right Response To The Mercies Of God Is A Wonderful, Wholehearted, An Obedient Full Surrender Of Our Bodies And Minds To God.
In view of God’s mercies:
1) Offer your life to God in full surrender (v. 1)
“And He (Jesus) said to all, ‘If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.”
– Luke 9:23
“I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.’”
- Galatians 2:20
In view of the mercies, God’s mercies:
1) Am I genuinely living daily as a living sacrifice?
2) What/Where am I holding back from God?
3) Where/To what is Jesus calling me to die today?
4) What is Jesus asking me to offer Him?
5) What next step in worship, faith, and obedience is Jesus calling me to take today?
2) Offer your mind to God in full submission (v. 2)
2 aspects of offering our minds to God daily (v. 2):
1) Do not be conformed (v. 2a)
2) Be transformed (v. 2b)
