Examine Yourself
Do you have even the slightest reliance on anything or anyone other than God? Is there a remnant of reliance left on any natural quality within you, or on any particular set of circumstances? Are you relying on yourself in any manner whatsoever regarding this new proposal or plan which God has placed before you."
Will you examine yourself by asking these probing questions? It really is true to say, "I cannot serve the Lord God's almighty power will flow through you. Is your relationship with God sufficient for you to expect Him to exhibit His wonderful life in you?
This is not an impulsive action, but a deliberate commitment. We tend to say, "But God could never have called me to this. I'm too unworthy. It can't mean me," It does mean you, and the more weak and feeble you are, the better. The person who is still relying and trusting in anything within himself is the last person to even come close to saying "I will serve the Lord."
The question is, "Will I believe? No wonder Jesus Christ placed such emphasis on the sin of unbelief. If we actually believed that God meant what He said, just imagine what we would be like! Do you really dare to let God be to you all that He says He will be?
