“I am the way, the truth, and the life.” John 14:6
The definition of the term unequivocal is “in a way that is clear and unambiguous and not subject to any conditions or exceptions”. It is espousing an attitude that is absolute and without doubt.
Your response to Christ has to do with yielding your will power to Him.
God wants you and I to come to Him with an unequivocal commitment. This means you unquestionably accept Christ for who He is and submit your will to Him.
The concept of abandoning yourself to God is difficult for most people. It is just to costly for some and many times is easily misunderstood.
Your will power is the stumbling block for almost all believers. We come into the world as ego driven people and strongly desire to keep our autonomy and independence.
The question becomes “Who is going to exercise the will power in your life—you or God?”
In facing Christ we tend to yield a little of our will power and as we grow in maturity we turn over more of our independence to Him. It is easy to give the non important things to God but when it comes to work, security, or money it is another matter.
Then there are those who agree to jump wholeheartedly into God but have a mistaken concept about abandonment. They believe the path to God is to practice religion and do works.
Abandonment is not about works, keeping laws, or religion. It is simply submitting your will to God unconditionally and without any limitations. It is giving God the freedom to do with you as He pleases!
Walking with God is a lifestyle of prayer, worship, dwelling in His Word, and yielding to the Holy Spirit. This is how you will find the will of God.
Abandonment is knowing Christ and living through Him!
