Speaker 1 (00:01):
Welcome to today's episode of It on the Move, where
we explored deep spiritual truth that shape our Christian journey.
I am your host, prophet engineer Stephen you say, and
today we are going to discussing a life changing question.
(00:25):
Where is Jesus in your life vehicle? Imagine your life
as a car. Every day you are on a journey,
making decisions, facing challenges and choosing which road to take.
(00:45):
But the great question is who is driving your life?
Is Jesus in the driver's seat guarding you safely or
is he just a passenger sitting in the back.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
Why are you take full control?
Speaker 1 (01:02):
Maybe you only call on him when there is a breakdown.
Today we are going to break this down using rare
life examples, scriptures and self refreshing So grab a notebook
and your pen and let's tack.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Let us take this journey together.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Let's see first point, Jesus as a persenger, the co
parlot mentality. Many Christians live with a co p alot mentality.
They acknowledge Jesus, but they still want to be in control.
They make decisions without consulting him and only as for gardeners,
(01:48):
when things get tough, think about GPS. When we set
a destination, it gives us the best roots, but sometimes
we ignore it because.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
We think we know better.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
How many times you How many times have you ignored
God's direction because we feel your way was better?
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Then later you.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
Realize you made a mistake and came back asking him
to fix it. Proved Chapter Fire three, five and six.
Tell Us trust in the Lord with all your heart,
and lay not into your own understanding. In all your
ways so made to him, and he will make your
(02:44):
path straight. If Jesus is a passenger, you are still
in the controul. Make on your own tense and stops.
But what is when you hate that end?
Speaker 2 (03:01):
Right now?
Speaker 1 (03:05):
If you had to be honest, it's Jesus in control
of your decisions? Or do you just consult him when
things go wrong? Thank about this? Think about this points
(03:26):
number two. Jesus is the back seat. Jesus in the
back seat. I refer to it only calling on him
in crisis. Some people don't even have Jesus in the
front seat. They keep him in the back seat out
(03:49):
of the way. They'll only remember him when troubles comes.
Like a spear tie, my God, my goodness. Imagine a
person driving restlessly, ignorely wanted science, speeding past red light.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Suddenly they crash.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
Now they started shouting Jesus, save us, Jesus save us.
They didn't even involve him in their journey, but now
they want to. They want him to fix the damage suddenly.
This is how some of us live. When life however
(04:30):
we want, we will live however we want.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
It can only go as god rance.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
But when program horizes, sickness, financial struggle, family crisis, will
suddenly remember Jesus. Matthew says that tell us sick first,
the Kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
Things will be added onto you. Jesus.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
Isn't just emergency rescue team. I'm telling you this morning,
I'm telling this afternoon. I'm telling him this evening. Jesus,
there's nothing. Isn't a majency rescue team. He wants you.
He wants to be your leader every single day, every
single day. If he is in the back seat, you
need to move him forward, moving him forward. If Jesus
(05:18):
is in the back seat, move him forward.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
I remember in a day.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
In my own life, when I try to control everything,
I made decisions without praying, thinking I had all figured out.
But when things started falling apart, I ran back to God.
(05:47):
I realized that I have praised Jesus in the back seat.
Now you've ever been there, think about this. When I
realize this, I just drew cluster to.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
Chord from his.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
Whenever I take my decision, I may think, but I say, Lord,
your fan out talt is supervised. Your finance thought oversead.
Your thought is in control of whatever are you doing.
Taken through.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
Take it.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
A point number three. Jesus as the driver, I call
it to ta surrender. Now here's the red transformation, Jesus
is asked the driver. When Jesus is driving, you don't
have to worry about the road ahead. You may not
(06:47):
always understand his route, but you can't trust that Jesus
knows where he is taking you to.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
Some twenty three vers traces.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
He got me along the right path for his name's sake.
For his namesake, Think about a charge in a car.
They don't want accent, Daddy, do you know where you
are going? They just trust the driver. That is how
(07:21):
God want us to be, with a complete fait that
he would lead us in the right decision, even though
the path the road.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
Made seem on crey, just tracks, just tracks.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Let me tell you this, When Jesus is driving, One,
you don't have to be feared because he knows the
best route. Two, you don't have to stress about the
(07:57):
speed because his timing is perfect. Today you don't have
to worry about the accident because he is your protector. Haleelujah.
The question is are you willing to surrender control? My goodness,
(08:20):
my goodness. So let me ask you again, Well is
Jesus in your life vehicle.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
Whell? Is Jesus in your life vehicle? Well? Is Jesus
in your life vehicle? One?
Speaker 1 (08:45):
Is he just a passenger where you sometimes take his
advice but you still want to control?
Speaker 2 (08:54):
Two?
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Is he in the back seat where you only call
on him in emediencies?
Speaker 2 (09:05):
Or Three?
Speaker 1 (09:08):
Is he the drivers seats guarding you every steps? Ah? Today,
I challenge you to make accept pray. I challenge you
to make a shipt. When God is a passenger, make ashipt.
If Jesus is in the basses, make ashipt. Put him
(09:31):
in front, passenger, put him in front. I challenge you
today pray this simple prayer with me, Lord Jesus, I
surlender the will of my life to you take onto
(09:55):
of my decision, my plans, my future lead me in
a way I should go. I trust you completely, Amen.
If you prayed that prayer, I trust that God is
nond letting your steps. Keep your heart open to his
(10:18):
voice and obey his instruction.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
