About Let Series

LET. Wielded by the Holy Spirit, this tiny word had a huge impact on Martha’s life, and the adventure can be yours, too, if you just LET God be GOD.

Devotional

John 14:27b
Do not let your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.

Though they had Christ’s own peace, the disciples could not receive or believe it. They didn’t yet possess the new creation from the outpouring of the Spirit at Pentecost.

Christ is the only One who can truly surrender to “let be and let God.” The Adamic nature can only oppose God and try to replace Him. Look at Romans 8!

Christ’s life and character lived in perfect, continuous yielding to allow God to perform for Him and speak through Him. And Jesus’ life is now our very existence. At last we can let God be God and watch Him live our life for us.

For me to live is Christ (Phil. 1:21).
