A lot of people want to know, how can I find God's will for my life?

I got good news. You don't have to.

Dr. Tony Evans says it'll find us, provided we're willing to let go.

All you got to do is surrender and God's will will track you down.

This is the alternative with Dr. Tony Evans, author, speaker,

senior pastor of Oaklef Bible Fellowship in Dallas, Texas, and president of the urban alternative.

Today, Dr. Evans has immense sights for us on the importance of surrendering to God,

including a look at what the Lord has in mind for us once we do.

Let's join him as he gets started.

Many Christians today are wondering why their Christian life doesn't work.

They have read about all the good things that God has for us as children of God.

They've heard about this power, but they are powerless.

They've heard about this victory, but they are defeated.

They heard about deliverance, but they are in bondage.

They know that there's stuff out there, but something is wrong because they can't get to it.

This is in spite of going to church, reading the Bible, having prayer meetings,

and doing a bunch of stuff that still doesn't give them access.

So today, I want to give you the past word of victory.

The one thing you need to access all the other stuff that God has provided us.

If I want to sum it up in one word, the past word to your spiritual provision is surrender.

Surrender is your past word.

I want to look at that past word today because I want you to understand the importance of the past word
