Giving a matter up to the Lord is something that happens in prayer.
As soon as the effort makes camp in the mind, the battle is lost. It requires an act of obedience, and you have the power to do this. You have been told to give it to Him, and so you must. It's just that it does not feel possible. The mind loves to capture the matter and drag it around until the emotions are battered.
Soldier of The Cross, you can't handle it. You were created to rely on Him completely.
We have born into the realm of the supernatural. The balance is, there is no independence. Like everything else in Him, this is a faith operation. You have to agree with Him and then you must hand over the burden in prayer. This is usually not a one-time thing. This is particularly true when relationships fail, a loved one dies, or when someone suffers for something not of his own doing.
Lord, I stand before you today and bring you this matter that is surely too great for me. You have said
you tenderly care for me and I choose to believe it.
I now choose whatever is eternal and whatever honors you. I have no idea what you are doing or how you are
doing it, but I want to learn not to limit you and I want to learn to give up protecting myself.
I want to know you more deeply and recognize you more quickly. I submit to you, Sovereign Lord and ask you to
do whatever is needed, in order to form your likeness in me.
By faith, I agree that you know and I do not.
By faith, I agree you can create out of nothing.
By faith, I agree that I do not need to understand.
By faith, I submit to whatever glorifies you.
I will love and serve and leave the matter with you.
