Alive and Reporting for Duty

0 Comments 24 May 2009

Press the arrow to listen to to “Here I Am to Worship” from Hillsong Church.

Scripture
…Present yourselves to God as those alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God. Romans 6:13

Prayer
Hello God, I’m back from the dead. I’m alive, thanks to you. The coffin cover is opened. I have pushed through the soil and sod. The rigor mortis is out of my body. Life energizes my system. Resurrecting power tingles inside of me. My mind is alert; my body is poised. I’m ready for action. I am reporting in today for service in the army of the resurrected ones. You have things for me to do today. Let’s get going. Let everything be used this day for the benefit of Christ.

Observation
I love the crispness of the thought to present myself as one alive from the dead. I need to come to him fully alive ready to act. I must never underestimate what has been given to me. It all must be used for him.

Application
I’m going to let this thought linger into action today. I’m alive and reporting for duty. Amen.

I'm Phil McCallum, a husband, father and most of all one of the people Jesus loves. I'm privileged to serve Evergreen Community Church in Bothell, Washington as Senior Pastor where people love enough to believe "it's all about relationships." In 1982 I made a vow to read God's word daily and apply it to life. Each day I write out my reflections. Some days I post those on my blog. It's a little personal but it's my hope it will stir you to go deeper still. Learn how I do my devotions. These are my thoughts and not necessarily those of the ministry I serve. By the way check out the computer study Bible Glo. I highly recommend it.
