To have a victorious life we need to surrender our lives to God every day. It is the daily-ness of full surrender to God that leads us to a victorious life in Christ. For full surrender to God, we can follow these seven steps:
1. I SURRENDER my family and friends. I do not give up on them; I simply surrender them to the will of God so that even if their wills conflict with the Father's will, I will do only that which God calls me to do.
2. I SURRENDER my goals, my job, my career, my future.
3. I SURRENDER my reputation, what people think of me and say about me. I must care more about what God thinks of me than what people do.
4. I SURRENDER my finances, my possessions, all that I claim is mine.
5. I SURRENDER my social life, my recreations, my pleasures, my amusements, as well as my relationships with the opposite sex.
6. I SURRENDER my daily schedule. I give God not only my days and hours but my total life and all of my time.
7. Most importantly, I SURRENDER my will, my very self, my fears, my ambitions. And if I can do this, then I don´t have to worry about the first six steps. This one step takes in all the others, and this surrendered life is what leads us to daily victory.
