Surrendering (submitting to or trusting) God a) An active, living faith and a conscious decision to surrender to God's will are critical components in the life of a Christian. i) 28. He who trusts in his riches shall fall, but the righteous shall blossom like a branch. (Proverbs 11:28)  ii) 20. He who handles a matter wisely shall find good, and whoever trusts in the LORD, happy is he. (Proverbs 16:20)  iii) 25 Selfishness only causes trouble. You are much better off to trust the Lord. (Proverbs 28:25)  iv) 5. Every word of God is pure; He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him. (Proverbs 30:5)  v) 8. But my eyes are upon You, O Lord GOD; in You I take refuge, do not leave me destitute. (Psalm 148:8)  vi) Praise the Lord, my soul, and do not forget how kind he is. 3 He forgives all my sins and heals all my diseases. (Psalm 103:2 - 3)
