12:1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, [which is] your reasonable service. 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what [is] that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. 12:3 For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think [of himself] more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.

Romans 12:1-3

THIS HOW WE SHOULD LIVE. EVERY DAY IS A NEW DAY AND WE MUST PRESENT OURSELVES DAILY TO GOD. AS TRUE CHRISTIANS WE MUST SACRIFICE OUR TIME TO GET IN THE WORD AND PRAYER CLOSET AGAIN DAILY. HOLINESS IS NOT ON THE OUTSIDE IT ON THE INSIDE. WE CAN BE PART OF THE WORLD ABD PART GOD. JESUS HE WILL SPUE OUT IF YOU LUKEWARM.WHEN WE GIVEOUR LIVES TO JESUS, WE LEAVE OUR PAST BEHIND,WE BECOME A NEW CREATURE. WE DO NOT DO THE SAME THINGS WE DID BEFORE WE GOT SAVED, WE PRESSED TOWARD THE MARKOF HIGH CALLING
OF JESUS.GOD LOVES PEOPLE BUT HE HATES SIN. WE HAVE DAILY CLEANSE OURSELVES AND KEEPING OURSELVES FROM THE APPEARANCE OF EVIL.

WE SING A SONG AT OUR CHURCH

A PURE HEART THATS WHAT I LONG FOR
A HEART THAT FOLLOWS HARD AFTER THEE
A PURE HEART THATS I LONG FOR
A HEART THAT FOLLOWS THEE
A HEART THAT HIDES YOUR WORDS SO SIN DOES NOT COME IN
A HEART THAT UNDIVIDED ONE THAT TRUE TO HIM
SWEET AROMA OF WORSHIP THAT RISE TO YOUR THRONE

THIS IS HOW WE SHOULD LIVE

THE ANSWER

119:9 How can a young man keep his way pure? By guarding it according to thy word.

Psalms 119:9

Yes but don't forget why: it's in the preceding verses ending in Romans 11:36.

11:33 O the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments and how inscrutable his ways! 11:34 "For who has known the mind of the Lord, or who has been his counselor?" 11:35 "Or who has given a gift to him that he might be repaid?" 11:36 For from him and through him and to him are all things. To him be glory for ever. Amen.

Romans 11:33-36 RSV

As someone told me: "Many want to server God...but only as advisers." We don't need to give Him a detailed set of instructions for Him to accomplish things for us like He doesn't know what to do or what we need, nor do we have anything to give Him that He didn't first give us.

Because our existence is from Him, and He is the one who formed us in our Mother's womb, and we exist for Him, and not He for us...it is our "reasonable" service of worship to offer our bodies to Him as a living sacrifice; we have to renew our minds by setting them on the things above. God is in us both to will and to do His good pleasure; our faith is to be in those facts and in Him, not in our ability or inability; but in His ability!

Nice blog! Blessings!
