A wonderful illustration of the Covenant we have with God drawn from The Bear – a 1980s film. I used this illustration in a sermon on the Armour of God
Precious Lord, let me be Your servant, under Your command.
I will no longer be my own.
I give myself up to Your will in all things.
Make of me what You will. Rank me with whom You will.
I put myself fully in Your hands.
Put me to doing…or put me to suffering.
Let me be employed for You… or laid aside for You
Exalted for You… or brought low for You.
Let me be full…or let me be empty.
Let me have all things… or let me have nothing.
I freely and heartily yield all things to Your pleasure and disposal.
And now – O glorious and blessed God – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit – You are mine… and I am Yours. So be it! Let this covenant, which I make here on Earth today, be ratified in Heaven. In Christ’s Name, I pray – Amen.
John Wesley Covenant Prayer
