Do you find that you submit yourself to God only to
quickly fall again? Do you need the victorious life? Try surrendering
absolutely! In this audio book, Absolute Surrender,
Andrew Murray shows you how to surrender completely to God and how He
maintains and keeps your surrender.
This book is truly a classic Christian work.
This MP3 audio book is unabridged and complete.
The chapters are on separate tracks.
I am sure there is many a
heart that says: Ah, but that absolute surrender implies so much!
Someone says: Oh, I have passed through so much trial and suffering,
and there is so much of the self-life still remaining, and I dare not
face the entire giving of it up, because I know it will cause so much
trouble and agony.
Alas! alas! that God's
children have such thoughts of Him, such cruel thoughts. Oh, I come to
you with a message, fearful and anxious one. God does not ask you to
give the perfect surrender in your strength, or by the power of your
will; God is willing to work it in you. Do we not read: It is God that
worketh in us, both to will and to do of his good pleasure? And that is
what we should seek for - to go on our faces before God, until our
hearts learn to believe that the everlasting God Himself will come in
to turn out what is wrong, to conquer what is evil, and to work what is
well-pleasing in His blessed sight. God Himself will work it in you.
Look at the men in the Old
Testament, like Abraham. Do you think it was by accident that God found
that man, the father of the faithful and the Friend of God, and that it
was Abraham himself, apart from God, who had such faith and such
obedience and such devotion? You know it is not so. God raised him up
and prepared him as an instrument for His glory.
Did not God say to
Pharaoh: For this cause have I raised thee up, for to show in thee my
power?
And if God said that of
him, will not God say it far more of every child of His?
Oh, I want to encourage
you, and I want you to cast away every fear. Come with that feeble
desire; and if there is the fear which says: Oh, my desire is not
strong enough, I am not willing for everything that may come, I do not
feel bold enough to say I can conquer everything - I pray you, learn to
know and trust your God now. Say: My God, I am willing that Thou
shouldst make me willing. If there is anything holding you back, or any
sacrifice you are afraid of making, come to God now, and prove how
gracious your God is, and be not afraid that He will command from you
what He will not bestow.
God comes and offers to
work this absolute surrender in you. All these searchings and
hungerings and longings that are in your heart, I tell you they are the
drawings of the divine magnet, Christ Jesus. He lived a life of
absolute surrender, He has possession of you; He is living in your
heart by His Holy Spirit. You have hindered and hindered Him terribly,
but He desires to help you to get hold of Him entirely. And He comes
and draws you now by His message and words. Will you not come and trust
God to work in you that absolute surrender to Himself? Yes, blessed be
God, He can do it, and He will do it.
