I Will Follow Thee by Advent Pioneers (With Lyrics)

God’s promise is “You will seek me, and you will find me because you will seek me with all your heart.” Jeremiah 29:13. We must give all of our heart to God, or we cannot be changed to be like Him. Our sinful hearts are unlike God, and naturally turn from Him. The Bible describes the way we are: “spiritually dead”; “your heart and mind are sick”; “not a healthy spot on your body.” Ephesians 2:1; Isaiah 1:5, 6. Sinners are held fast by Satan. They are in “the trap of the Devil, who had caught them and made them obey his will.” 2 Timothy 2:26. God wants to heal us. He wants to set us free. To do this He must change us entirely so that we have new desires and habits. But He cannot do this until we give ourselves completely to Him. The battle against self is the greatest battle ever fought. It is hard for us to give ourselves to God and let Him control our minds. But we must let God rule or He cannot make us new and holy. Many people are asking, “How can I give myself to God?” They want to give themselves to Him, but their moral strength is weak. They doubt God and are controlled by sinful habits. Their promises are easily broken, like ropes of sand. They cannot control their thoughts or their desires. Because they cannot keep their promises, they lose confidence in themselves and wonder if they are sincere. They feel that God cannot accept them. But they must not lose hope. We all need to understand the value of willpower. The power of choice is the ruling power in life. Everything depends on the right use of this power. God has given the power of choice to each person, and it is theirs to use. We cannot change our hearts. We cannot by ourselves give our love to God. But we can choose to serve Him. We can give Him the powers of our mind. Then He will help us choose the right way. Our whole being will be guided by the Spirit of Christ. We will love God, and our thoughts will be like His. An entire change may be made in our lives through the right use of the power of choice. When we put ourselves on God’s side, He gives us His great power to hold us. By giving ourselves to God each day we will be able to live a new life, the life of faith. — Ellen G. White #IWillFollowTheeMySaviour #AdventPioneers #Hymn
