Last week we talked about Mark 14 where Jesus told the disciples “All of you will be made to stumble because of Me this night . . .” Peter immediately disagreed with Jesus and began to argue, in fact, Peter was so sure that Jesus was wrong that he didn’t even hear the rest of Jesus’ statement, “But after I have been raised, I will go before you to Galilee.” Peter missed the promise because he was busy disagreeing with the premise. He couldn’t hear Jesus’ heart for him because he was busy trying to prove his heart for Jesus. He overlooked redemption because he couldn’t see past what he perceived as an accusation. Peter continued his argument with Jesus and declared “If I have to die with You, I will not deny You!” Peter was adamant, he was confident, he was sure of himself; this time Jesus was wrong, there was no way that Peter was going to deny Jesus because Peter had already settled in his heart that he was willing to die for Jesus. Today I think that it is really important that we understand that Peter was telling the truth. When we get to our text we will see that he was actually willing to die for Jesus, he was not afraid, he was completely committed to what he had decided he was going to do for Jesus, the problem was that he was not yet fully surrendered to be everything Jesus would ask him to be. Today we will concentrate on one question, “What does surrender look like?” We will concentrate on this question because I believe that some of us in this room are probably completely committed but we might not be fully surrendered. We are like Peter in that we have decided to do what is in our hearts for Jesus but Jesus is calling us to lay down our hearts to Him. We are ready to prove our worth and He is asking us to trust His love, we are dressed for battled and He is asking us to put away our swords. My hope and my prayer for today is that we will all surrender, that we will hold nothing back, cover nothing up and that we will just stop arguing long enough to actually hear what Jesus is saying to us about Himself. You see, our biggest point of surrender is not about hearing Jesus tell us who we are, we have to trust Jesus to be who He is, believe that He knows how to be king better than we know how the king should be and then we have to glorify Jesus as the King of everything. Until Jesus is our greatest love, our greatest desire and our closest friend and our only leader we are not yet fully surrendered. This morning I want us to see that surrender requires reverence, it is often shaped through denial but it always leads to redemption.
