WHAT ARE YOU YIELDING TO?

WHAT ARE YOU YIELDING TO?

" . . . you are that one's slave whom you obey . . . " (Romans 6:16)

"The first thing I must be willing to admit when I begin to examine what
controls and dominates me is that I am responsible for having yielded
myself to whatever it may be. If I am a slave to myself, I am to blame
because somewhere in the past I yielded to myself. Likewise, if I obey
God I do so because at some point in my life I yielded myself to Him.

If a child gives in to selfishness, he will find it to be the most
enslaving tyranny on earth. There is no power within the human soul
itself that is capable of breaking the bondage of the nature created by
yielding. For example, yield for one second to anything in the nature of
lust, and although you hate yourself for having yielded, you become
enslaved to that one thing. (Remember what lust is -- 'I must have it
now [INSTANT GRATIFICATION],' whether it is the lust of the flesh or the
lust of the mind.) No release or escape from it will ever come from
HUMAN power, but only through the power of redemption.

You must yield yourself in utter humiliation to the only ONE who can
break the dominating power in your life, namely, the Lord Jesus Christ.
'. . . He has anointed Me . . . to proclaim liberty to the captives . .
. ' Luke 4:18 and Isaiah 61:1)

When you yield to something, you will soon realize the tremendous
CONTROL it has over you. Even though you say, 'Oh, I can give up that
habit whenever I like,' you will know you can't. You will find that the
HABIT absolutely DOMINATES you because you WILLINGLY yielded to it. It
is easy to sing, 'He will break every fetter,' while at the same time
living a life of obvious SLAVERY to yourself. But yielding to Jesus WILL
break every kind of slavery in any person's life.'" -- amazingly
powerful words today from the pen of Oswald Chambers in the daily
devotional, MY UTMOST FOR HIS HIGHEST.

On Saturday at our Freedom Fighter day, I was amazed how few men have
protection on their computers for them and their family. Of the 275 men
in attendance, only 7 men raised their hands to indicate that they are
using a software to provide protection from the smut that is one-click
away from disaster. We cannot play with fire men. You MUST protect
yourself and the ones you love. SAFE EYES is a filtering program that
will provide protection and accountability. Do you want your kids
trapped in the same bondage that you have been in for years? A $50
investment can make a difference. If you are not protected-- call our
Keswick Bookstore today and order SAFE EYES. We will ship it to you
postage free. IT IS AN INVESTMENT THAT WILL KEEP YOU FROM YIELDING TO
THE FLESH and protect your family. Do it today! 732-350-1187 ext 31.
