Discipleship: The Character of Jesus: Submissive & Obedient

Pastor Edwards teaches on the character of the believer and specifically looks at the example of Jesus. Jesus's submission to God's will. John 6:38 Matthew 26:39   Obedience is rooted involve. John 14:31   The call to reflect Jesus' character. Philippians 2:5-8 So, how can we begin to cultivate a heart like Jesus'? Here are a few practical steps: Spend Time in God’s Presence – The more time we spend with God, the more we align our desires with His. Seek God’s Will First – In every situation, big or small, make it a habit to pray, 'Not my will, but Yours be done.' Be Willing to Let Go of Your Own Agenda – Recognize that God’s plan is better, even if it’s different from what we envisioned. Trust God’s Goodness – Submission and obedience require us to believe that God’s plans are for our good, even if we can’t see the full picture yet.
