(2 Part) Recovering The Lost/Locating The Ax Head

2 Kings 6:1-7
 King James Version (KJV)

"And the sons of the prophets said unto Elisha, Behold now, the place where we dwell with thee is too strait for us. Let us go, we pray thee, unto Jordan, and take thence every man a beam, and let us make us a place there, where we may dwell. And he answered, Go ye. And one said, Be content, I pray thee, and go with thy servants. And he answered, I will go. So he went with them. And when they came to Jordan, they cut down wood. But as one was felling a beam, the axe head fell into the water: and he cried, and said, Alas, master! for it was borrowed. And the man of God said, Where fell it? And he shewed him the place. And he cut down a stick, and cast it in thither; and the iron did swim. Therefore said he, Take it up to thee. And he put out his hand, and took it."

"The Prophet Elisha had gathered around him a school of prophets.  The present quarters had become over crowded.  So, Elisha took some of the students down to Jordan to build a new school by the river.  They set out with their axes, every man taking a beam.  
We know from the above scripture that at least one of them had a "borrowed" ax. It is this young man and his borrowed ax that we want to center our attention on this morning.  I would like to speak on the subject:  

Recovering The Lost.

It is the cutting edge of the ax head that especially demands our attention.  The ax head speaks of the anointing of the Holy Spirit upon our lives; the penetrating power of God, the effectiveness of a a spirit filled life, testimony and service.  It speaks of lively worship and witness.
When you lose the ax head - the cutting edge of the power and anointing of the Holy Spirit you don't have much left! 
When you lose the power and the anointing you lose the joy of salvation.   Friends, your education, your personality, your enthusiasm and zeal can never substitute for the anointing of the Holy Spirit.  When you lose the power and the anointing ....the cutting edge, you are not cutting or trimming but just scratching up the bush.
                                                  

You may say "it is just a handle."  It is just a stick of wood. 
Sadly, today there are many ministers of the Gospel preaching with just a handle.  They are whittling away with just an old dry stick.  The Bible says that it's the anointing that breaketh the yoke...the anointing power of the Holy Spirit.  "It is not by might and it's not by power but by my spirit says the Lord."  (Zechariah 4:6)  

Notice with me the "Loaning" of the ax head.  We read that it was "borrowed."  It was owned and loaned by another person.  This meant that this man using it had to give an account of it.  We are not our own.  Everything we are and everything we have is loaned to us from God.  One day we must give account to God for those things.  Those gifts and tools He has placed in our hands.  What are we doing with the time, talents, treasures, things and tools that God has blessed us with?  We are responsible!  We must give account!
                                                        

Next, notice the "Losing" of the ax head.
But, before we consider that.....let's think for a moment of the "Loosening" of the ax head.  
Because you see....before you can lose the ax head and before it can "fly off the handle" it has to become loose.   
I don't have to tell you or remind you that "loose living" will rob you of the Holy Spirits anointing.  You may shake yourself like a shorn Samson and swing away with just a handle and not even realize that the Holy Spirit has departed.

                 The ax head always gets loose before you lose it!

No Christian backslides all at once.  They get loose little by little.  Somebody says they committed "such and such" sin and backslide.  No - they backslid and then went out and did "such and such".  It gets in your head, in your heart and then in to your hands.

The ax head first gets loose and dull.  

Why?  

Because of neglect.  

Out there in this world we come in contact with all sorts of things.  We hit hard knots of persecution, discontentment, and discouragement.  There are old nails of fear, doubt...and much more.  

Unless we keep that cutting edge honed and sharpened on the grindstone and whetstone of prayer and The Word of God, it will get dull!  

Some ax heads get loose and are lost simply 
                                                      because they "dry out".  
They shrink and slip right off.  Some just dry up because they won't worship and praise the Lord.  I don't mean just some dry Amens now and then.  I mean some good ole juicy Healleluyahs, Glory to Gods and Thank you Jesus!

When I was growing up we used to burn a lot of wood.  And, yes, we had to cut our own wood.  My Dad was real particular about our axes.  Every now and then he would have us soak the ax head in oil or water.  That ax handle would swell up and get good and tight.  Let me remind you that oil and water are types of the Holy Spirit.  
So - you want to know the remedy for dry or loose ax heads?  A good old soaking in the Holy Spirit.....a fresh refilling and a fresh anointing of the Holy Spirit!
                                                                       

It is easy to get dull.  It is easy to get dry.  It is easy to get loose.  The Bible says, "be ye filled with the Spirit".  Be ye "being" filled.  It is not, " I was filled 15 years ago or even 1 year ago.  
But, are you filled and full right now?  Otherwise, we get loose.

And, then comes the "Losing" of the ax head.
The man in the scripture above was feeling a beam and that ax head had gotten dull, dry ad loose.  It flew off and into the water.  

Oh, the tragedy of lost power, 

 A lost anointing..... 

A lost effectiveness for God.

This is the picture of many churches and many christians.  Even in the midst of a diligent work for God we can lose the cutting edge anointing if we don't pray and stay in The Word.  If we don't worship, witness and keep the ax head in good shape.....keeping the Holy Spirits power in our lives.

Do we have the dynamite of God or are we just lighting off fire crackers?  

Why should we be content with fire crackers when God has given us dynamite?

Have we gotten a little dull?

A little dry?

A little loose?

Perhaps what we all need is a good soaking in the oil and water of the Holy Spirit!

Perhaps we need a good tightening and sharpening so we can go out and feel some more beams for Jesus.  Amen?

Tonight we will conclude with 

The Locating of The Ax Head 

or Steps to Recovery.

Scripture:  2 Kings 6: 1-7

This morning we saw how the ax head was "Loaned", how it was "Loosened" and how it was "Lost".  Tonight we want to preach on -

Locating The Lost

Power restored

and

The Anointing Renewed

Praise God the story does not end with LOSS.  

There is Recovery!

There is power lost but praise God there is power regained.

We have likened the ax head to the anointing of the Holy Spirit.  The effectiveness of a Spirit filled life and testimony.
The penetrating power of God, lively worship and witness.

The man in the scripture was a man in the midst of diligent service to God lost his ax head.  But, before he lost it, it became loose.  Loose living robs us of the anointing of God.  
One doesn't backslide all at once.  It begins with neglect.  
Neglect in prayer, in worship, in witness and in reading and studying The Word of God.

Locating the ax head......
Notice that first of all, when the man lost his ax head he confessed it.  He said "Alas Master it was borrowed".  
We said this morning that the ax was owned and loaned by another person which meant that made this man responsible.  He must give an account.  
What are we doing with those things God has entrusted to our hands?
But, he confessed his loss.  We will never regain our loss regardless what it is unless we are honest with God and confess our need and our loss.
We can keep on whittling away with just a handle...going through the motions..just skinning the bark..with no penetration and no power.
Thankfully, this man had sense enough to stop swinging until the ax head was recovered.

When we are willing to cry out to God and confess that we have lost it, then we are on our way to recovery.

#1 Step to recovery is Confession.

Elisha, the man of God said to this young man who lost his ax head, "where did you lose it"?  The man said, "right there".  
He showed him the place.  

He knew where he lost it .....and so do you.  

People who lose out know when and where they lost it!  
You know when you gave up praying and seeking God and His Word.....when you quit being faithful to the house of God.  You know when you stopped your time of worship.... where and when you allowed the matters of this world to lead you astray.

Confess it!

Go back there and show God the place. 
Restore that altar.  Give up that habit.  
Get back in to His Word again.  Be faithful to worship.  
Praise God again.  Get right with your earthly relationships.  

You know where you lost it.  

Confess it and tell God you want your ax head back.

Step #2 is Intercession.

He appealed to his master.  "Alas Master".   He was confident his master could help him.  Thank God we have our master whom we can call on!  We are confident He can help us!  We can confess our need to Him and He will hear us.

When we intercede He intervenes!

Step #3 is Supernatural Intervention.

The man of God cut down a stick and threw it in the water over the spot where the ax head fell and the iron did swim. 
                                            

The "recovery" wasn't affected by natural means but by      Divine Intervention.  

The iron did swim.  It did not just float.  It swam.  It swam over to where the man could pick it up.  It defied the laws of gravity. It overcame the current.  Let me tell you......God knows how to defy the laws of nature and overcome the currents to bring us deliverance!

Step #4 is Appropriation (to take possession of)

And the man of God said, "pick it up - take it up to thee - reach out and get it".

Hallelujah!

God has promised you.....It's yours - claim it - take it - thank and praise God for it!

And he put out his hand and took it.  He confessed his loss. He prayed and interceded and the Master intervened.  A miracle was wrought.  He appropriated the promise and recovered what he had lost.

  You can do the same!

                                                     

Fellowship In The Fire

                                                                           

Scripture Reading:                                                                                                          Daniel 3: 1-30 (King James Version) Nebuchadnezzar the king made an image of gold, whose height was threescore cubits, and the breadth thereof six cubits: he set it up in the plain of Dura, in the province of Babylon. Then Nebuchadnezzar the king sent to gather together the princes, the governors, and the captains, the judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the provinces, to come to the dedication of the image which Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up. Then the princes, the governors, and captains, the judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the provinces, were gathered together unto the dedication of the image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up; and they stood before the image that Nebuchadnezzar had set up. Then an herald cried aloud, To you it is commanded, O people, nations, and languages, That at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, dulcimer, and all kinds of musick, ye fall down and worship the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king hath set up: And whoso falleth not down and worshippeth shall the same hour be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace. Therefore at that time, when all the people heard the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and all kinds of musick, all the people, the nations, and the languages, fell down and worshipped the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up. Wherefore at that time certain Chaldeans came near, and accused the Jews. They spake and said to the king Nebuchadnezzar, O king, live for ever. Thou, O king, hast made a decree, that every man that shall hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer, and all kinds of musick, shall fall down and worship the golden image: And whoso falleth not down and worshippeth, that he should be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace. There are certain Jews whom thou hast set over the affairs of the province of Babylon, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego; these men, O king, have not regarded thee: they serve not thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up. Then Nebuchadnezzar in his rage and fury commanded to bring Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. Then they brought these men before the king. Nebuchadnezzar spake and said unto them, Is it true, O Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, do not ye serve my gods, nor worship the golden image which I have set up? Now if ye be ready that at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer, and all kinds of musick, ye fall down and worship the image which I have made; well: but if ye worship not, ye shall be cast the same hour into the midst of a burning fiery furnace; and who is that God that shall deliver you out of my hands?  Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we are not careful to answer thee in this matter.  If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king.  But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up. Then was Nebuchadnezzar full of fury, and the form of his visage was changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego: therefore he spake, and commanded that they should heat the furnace one seven times more than it was wont to be heated. And he commanded the most mighty men that were in his army to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, and to cast them into the burning fiery furnace. Then these men were bound in their coats, their hosen, and their hats, and their other garments, and were cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace. Therefore because the king's commandment was urgent, and the furnace exceeding hot, the flames of the fire slew those men that took up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, fell down bound into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonished, and rose up in haste, and spake, and said unto his counsellors, Did not we cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? They answered and said unto the king, True, O king. He answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God. Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the mouth of the burning fiery furnace, and spake, and said, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, ye servants of the most high God, come forth, and come hither. Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, came forth of the midst of the fire. And the princes, governors, and captains, and the king's counsellors, being gathered together, saw these men, upon whose bodies the fire had no power, nor was an hair of their head singed, neither were their coats changed, nor the smell of fire had passed on them. Then Nebuchadnezzar spake, and said, Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who hath sent his angel, and delivered his servants that trusted in him, and have changed the king's word, and yielded their bodies, that they might not serve nor worship any god, except their own God. Therefore I make a decree, That every people, nation, and language, which speak any thing amiss against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, shall be cut in pieces, and their houses shall be made a dunghill: because there is no other God that can deliver after this sort. Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, in the province of Babylon. My text for today is Verse 25.   I will be speaking on the subject Fellowship in the Fire. We have here the story of 3 Hebrew men who refused to worship anyone else or anything else...other than the true God of Heaven... 3 men who remained upright among a bending and compromising people.   A trap was set for these 3 loyal Hebrews who loved their god and kept his commandments.  This king and his cord were in effect saying, "let's see the godly people suffer and see how much faith they really have." There is nothing the devil and the world like better than to back a Christian...a true man or woman of God into a corner and hammer and challenge their faith and dedication to God.   They tried these 3 Hebrews and they will try you and I. But, praise God we serve a God  that has ways of opening doors in blank walls  and making a way of escape where there is no way.   There is no doubt that our God is able to deliver us.   He can - and He will deliver us from trials, temptations, troubles, afflictions, hard places.   These 3 Hebrew men boldly declared the ability and power of their God.  They said, "if He does not ....they will still not bow down to any other Gods."   And... into the fiery furnace they went....their dream of deliverance seemingly unfulfilled. Have you ever desperately trusted God for deliverance "from" a certain trial or hard place?  Instead of God delivering you from it, did He go "through it" with you?  Perhaps many times God sees the need of introducing us to the Fellowship of the Fire.     "I see 4 in the fire, one is like the Son of God." God is able to deliver us through the fire!  Too often we limit God deliverance.....to just deliverance "from" the fire.  We prefer to have faith for escape rather than faith to endure.  But, these 3 Hebrews found out that when the fire became their lot - they were not without the Lords fellowship.  They were not without His freedom.  They were loose....walking in the fire.  Many times God receives greater glory and honor and we get greater good by being delivered from the fire rather than out of it. God is able to protect us by the fire!   Through the flames God brought these 3 Hebrews to a place where they were beyond the reach of their enemies.  The very flames that consumed the kings men that threw them in the fires, formed a protecting wall around the 3 Hebrews.  God can use our troubles and hard places as a barrier from the enemy to place us beyond reach. God is able to liberate us even in the fire!   In the midst of a world that is constantly mouthing "FREEDOM", it is wonderful to realize that God's people have liberty and freedom even in the furnace of trails and troubles. Walking in Fellowship with The Son of God.... they found liberty from bondage.  (loose) they found liberty from pain (no hurt) they found liberty from fear (the Son of God with them). God is able to cleanse and purify us through the fire!   When the 3 Hebrews came out of the furnace there was no smell of smoke on them.  Too often we come out of a fiery trial bearing the smell of smoke.  Our lives and experiences leave us smelling with the smoke of bitterness, questioning and complaining.  But, we can come through without a singe - without the smell of smoke.  We can and should come through our trials praising God for what He brought us through.                                             God is able to convince with the fire! The fire did not touch the 3 Hebrews but, let me tell you, it touched the onlookers!   None would have seemed harder to reach for God than King Nebuchadnezzar, but just listen to Him after he witnesses the Fellowship of the Fire that Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego experienced.  He was convinced by the fire!  He said, "Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshack and Abendego....  There is no other God who can deliver after their sort." So, the result of the fiery furnace was not three believers less but one believe more. When the world sees faith that will not diminish when troubles and hard places come, they are convinced that truly there is a God that is able to deliver.  Praise God! He may very well deliver you from the furnace but remember this Child of God......if He doesn't, He will Fellowship with you in the furnace.  He has promised "Lo, I am with you always".  With His Fellowship will come freedom that only He can give.   If the Son of Man set you free, you are free indeed!

The Lord Is....

Psalm 23

The Lord is.......

Today I want to especially stress the first three words of this wonderful portion of God's Word. 

The Lord is.............

Not the Lord was or the Lord will be (although both are true)

but, He is......

 Here is the greatest fact in all the universe....The Lord is! 

 The Lord is a reality. 

 The Lord is alive! 

Were it not for this reality our faith would be in vain. 

Hebrews 11:5 says, "But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him."  

Praise God!     The Lord is...... 

The Lord hears the cry of His people and He meets their every need.  The Psalmist David believed this.  Verse 1- Psalm 23 - David says, "The Lord is.........I shall not want."

The 23rd Psalm sets the Lord as a very present help.....not a past or a future help. 

Again, He is a helper of the past and of the future but, today we will emphasize the present. 

In fact, every verb in Psalm 23 is in the present tense.  God is a present tense God.  

He was the Lord yesterday, He will be the Lord tomorrow but, bless His great name, 

He is the Lord - TODAY!  

All we need to do folks is live one day at a time.

The One who made this day is the Lord of the day.

I shall not want................because He is my Lord today.

I will fear not evil..............because He is my Lord today.

           He prepares a table before me today.

           His goodness and mercy follow me today.

           He anoints me today.

           My cup runneth over today.

                      All because The Lord is.........

Psalm 23 is for today!  

We are living in valley days.....perilous days.  

But, The Great Shepherd is caring for His sheep, because The Lord is. 

The Lord is the Lord and He always will be The Lord!

He is not going to leave us here in the valley.  

Bless God, He is going to lead us through.

I'm listening for His voice.  I'm no longer listening or looking for the signs.  I am listening for the sound.  I am listening for the voice of the rapture.  Amen?

1 Thessalonians 4:16-17King James Version 

"For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord."

                                                                       

Thank God we won't stay in this valley.

There is a higher place for us in the hills of glory.

These valley days shall be victory days!

The Lord is......

The Lord is LOVE, PEACE, JOY, WISDOM

RIGHTEOUSNESS, SANTIFICATION, and POWER.

He is SAVIOR, HEALER, BAPTIZER, and COMING KING.

He is the lily of the valley

the bright and morning star

He is the fairest of 10,000 to my soul.

My - if I tried to tell you all that He is we would be here forever.  This is the difficulty that the Psalmist David had also.  So, he just put it in all inclusive terms and said, 

"The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want."

The Lord is.....

Isn't this the message of the Christmas season?

The angel said to Mary in Luke 1:28, "And the angel came in unto her, and said, 

Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women."

The angelic hosts said to the shepherds in Luke 2:11, "For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord."

                                                                         

The Lord is......The Lord is with you.

Immanuel (Hebrew: עִמָּנוּאֵל‎ meaning, "God with us"

The Lord is with us.

Prophets, good men, teachers all appeared on this earth before.  But, this time the Lord took off His royal robes, clothed Himself in human flesh and laid Himself upon the straw.

A miraculous incarnation of deity!

The Lord is with us!

Companionship... The Lord came to share our surroundings and earthly life.  

Yes, with its tests, trials and its troubles.  

He has not left us alone to pioneer this valley.  

He is touched by the feelings of our infirmities because He tried the way before us.  Hebrews 4:15 says, "For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.

He is with us. 

The Lord is with us.

The Lord is.... 

Hallelujah!

It would NOT be strange to think of the Lord with angels.  But, the Lord came to be with us.  You and I.  The Psalmist said to the Lord, concerning men in Psalm 8:4, "What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?  That visitation climaxed when God became man and walked the earth in the person of God's Son so that redeemed man could one day walk in Heaven and dwell in the house of the Lord forever.  

Long before Bethlehem, the Psalmist David said in Psalm 23, "The Lord is......"

You see, His beginning was not under the Star of Bethlehem.  

He always was and ever shall be!

He is the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end......

and everything in between!

Jesus said, "Before Abraham was.......I am."

(John 8:58, Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.)

David said, "The Lord is......." (Psalm 23)

Jesus says, "I am......"

"I am the bread of life"  (John 6:35)

"I am the living water"  (John 4:10-14)

"I am the door"  (John 10:9-16)

"I am the way"  (John 14:6)

"I am the truth"  (John 14:6)

"I am the life"  (John 14:6)

"I am the resurrection"  (John 11:25)

"I am the good shepherd"  (John 10:11)

The Bible says in Matthew 18:20, "For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them."

The Lord is......

The Lord is here, right now to meet your need.

He does not want you to want.  He wants you fed.

He does not want you to fear.  He wants you to rest.

He wants to lead you in to green pastures.

He wants to lead you through your valleys.

Will you trust Him?

Reach out today and take His hand.

Let Him lead you.

Today, let Him be your Lord.

3 Important Words From Psalm 23

Psalm 23: 1-3  (King James Version)

The Lord is my shepherd;
I shall not want.
He makes me to lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside the still waters.
He restores my soul;
He leads me in the paths of righteousness
For His name’s sake.

When we think of David as a shepherd we immediately have a vision 

of our Lord Jesus Christ....The Good Shepherd of our souls.

                                                         

There are several thoughts that stand out to me in these words from this wonderful Psalm.  I would like to share them with you.

They are based on the words:         He MAKETH

                                                              He LEADETH

                                                       and           He RESTORETH

There is the thought of MASTERY.

"He MAKETH ME to lie down in green pastures."  

Sheep do not lie down wherever and whenever they please.  The lie down when and where the shepherd see fit.  The shepherd is the master of the sheep.

Jesus is the great shepherd

 and master of the soul!

                                     

To try and live independently of Him is a lonely and hazardous life.

The person who rejects and refuses to allow Jesus to be Lord and Master of their life and says "I am my own master" is the person who is making a shipwreck of their life.  No man is fit to be their own master.  The Psalmist David is saying here:  "The Lord is my shepherd and master of my life.."

Even people who have lived good lives, if they have lived it apart from Jesus Christ it has all been in vain.  

We have only one life and it will soon be past....

only what is done for Christ will last. 

There is a mastery which is brutal and degrading to a person....such as the mastery of the devil. BUT, to be mastered by Jesus is to be mastered by divine love.  This kind of mastery is uplifting and rewarding.  

Eternal life in the house of the Lord forever 

awaits the soul who is mastered by Jesus!

There is also the thought of LEADERSHIP

in these words "He LEADETH ME beside still waters."  

Jesus is the leader of the soul 

who always leads to peace! 

There is no real peace outside of Jesus Christ.  You can search the world over but no real peace can be found apart from the peace of God.  This peace will only come when you make peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.  

He is the only master of the soul that will give you peace.....a peace that passes all understanding.

The devil and the world have nothing to offer but turmoil and unrest. 

But, Jesus says, "Come unto me all ye that labor and are heavy laden and I will give you rest.  (Matthew 11:28)

And in John 14:1 He says, "Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me."

Lastly I would like to share with you from the words of the Psalmist, 

"He RESTORETH MY SOUL"..... the thought of RESTORATION.

David knew from personal experience what these words meant.  

As you remember, David had a life of multiple mistakes and transgressions against God. But, David's soul was restored.  If you are reading these words and you have gotten away from God, know that restoration is available for your soul.

                                                       

Let the love of God and the love of The Master take mastery over your soul and life today.  Give everything over to Him and surrender to His heavenly leadership.  

You will find restoration!  

You can only be restored by Jesus Christ - The Master of the soul.  

  Won't you accept Him today?
