EP 31: Full Surrenderance

[@WdzMason_abrushwithChrist]

“My walk with Jesus matches the intensity and severity of what He saved me from.” Megan Ashley

[@meloshotz]

That was something, wasn't it? I replayed that part a couple of times.

[@satrena]

This is one of those quotes that will stay with us for GENERATIONS. I think about it often.

[@LightBeingsBE]

This is just a fact, God is very fair. Your punishment matches your crime for your growth and makes you never want to go back 😂😅. You don’t want to walk that tunnel twice 😢

[@Brandirell]

“We can no longer be okay with giving God a contribution, when he’s requiring a sacrifice.” Megannnnnnnn!!!!! 😭 My Lord this was so loud! 😩🙏🏾

[@helloprincess]

Sitting here thinking about how much more I need to sacrifice for Christ, He wants it all ❤

[@TOSORIO-q8h]

I can resonate with you.

[@helloprincess]

@@TOSORIO-q8h thank you so much 💖 I originally was gonna say “Does anyone else feel like..” so it’s so special that you said that

[@shavonfreeman]

Yes he does ❤

[@reboundingfromnarcissistic5386]

This video is very powerful and is the central theme of my life. Back in 2020,I fully surrendered to the lord because I knew that I could not do life all by myself. Prior to surrendering, I held on to the pain of not having a family. Little did I know that my future wife was also surrendering at the same time. Fast forward, we met each other at bible study, after confronting our own traumas and deciding to take full accountability over our life. When we met we met (God bringing us together), we were ready. I went from being a single guy in LA to now having a God fearing family and four beautiful children. The Lord will give you your heart’s desires if you do your part first, which is completely giving him your life. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@girlcodebymartha]

Thanks for sharing. So inspiring.

[@Ahaya-de7mk]

Thanks for sharing this❤

[@belinokidz9716]

My questions is how do I know I am surrendering all or that I am not surrendering all.

[@reboundingfromnarcissistic5386]

@@belinokidz9716 when it’s hard and uncomfortable. That’s how you know you’re fully allowing the Lord to step into that place despite it being hard. Make Him apart of your every day decision making. Sometimes you don’t see the Lords work until it’s retrospect, but the trust is the key factor

[@TheAnissaMonee]

I have never listen to any of her podcast never knew about it. As I have recently given God a full surrender as a newbie I told him I had no idea what to do from here… this video then found me. Everything she is speaking on is everything I spoke to God about during our private conversation. He is literally speaking through her directly to me 😭😭😭😭

[@NomsLoots]

YOU CAN’T AVOID THE MESS. This is the lesson I had to and still are learning and will forever be learning. Salvation is a constant dance. It doesn’t end. I keep getting refined. I keep needing to die to self. I keep needing to become more like Christ. It’s not easy. The flesh fights. But the Holy Spirit strengthens me. Oh man.

[@katinadavis8776]

"It's now no longer about what they did but what God is doing in me!" - Megan Ashley I can relate to this! I realized some time ago how these things always point back to what God is doing in me. What a word!

[@thedukenotdon955]

I hurt myself 4 weeks ago. My plans for the summer was not of God. As I been sitting in my place God has been showing me who my real friends are and I have been praying and journaling reading my Bible and watching you. And I’m praying for a 180 when I come out of this. I don’t want to go back to doing what I was doing. I owe God my life for how he has been providing for me in my time of need. I’m not working due to my injuries and God has been making a way for me financially showing me that he is here. This happened to me for a reason how can I be mad? How can I be sad. I’m happy that god is Channing my life and showing himself real. I’m happy for all my losses more than my wins. I distort everything god have given me with my own hands. It’s time to let him lead my life because with him it’s in control

[@Nikki...]

Taking EVERY thought captive into the obedience of Christ is truly a life changer!👑❤️

[@mariebro]

Indeed it is.

[@note2self884]

Megan is literally my mentor and she don’t even know it 🙌🏾🙌🏾 I thank God for what the is doing in her life.

[@norydiaz8507]

“ your contribution doesn’t do anything, but your sacrifice can change everything” All I can say is WHOA!!! 🤯 I so felt that thing in the core of my very bones! Thank you so much for sharing your vulnerability your suffering, but even more importantly for sharing how the Lord is working in your life❤

[@TheKingElijah]

You are on the right path. Don't let any tell you otherwise. We were on our way to hell, but Jesus called us to come out of the line and follow Him. We can't love sin more than Him He is Our All at this point.

[@lassondraarmstrong7316]

This is so on time! The Lord wants all of me and I still find myself tied to social media, tied to wanting to be seen, stuck in scrolling to avoid sitting with the pain and addressing it but the time Alone with the Lord and Turing off every distraction is sooooo needed 😭😭😭😭

[@MonicaEzue]

You just described my whole life for the past year. All idols have been exposed and they are crashing down

[@laurarivera1306]

This is just another confirmation of what I know I need to do. I thought I had surrendered all but if I’m honest I’ve been giving him moments and only certain pieces of me. I’ve getting by with what I know, just like you said😢 it’s time to surrender ALL!

[@HairDefineGallery_]

😊😊😊😊The pure in heart shall see God❤❤❤❤. Well done

[@kessieboo7659]

Megan is so beautiful not only on the outside , but biblically. Inwardly ❤️❤️

[@nelibhala]

My pastor preached on Romans 12:1-2 i walked out of church knowing that I will never be the same after hearing what it is to offer my body as a living sacrifice. To die daily. I’d never heard or understood it that way before, by God’s grace, the revelation located me. It’s been a week since I heard that sermon and whenever I get flashes of who I was before the word on the tip of my tongue is “I am a new creation, behold the old has passed the new has come” . “My mind is renewed and I am transformed” “I have the spirit of love, peace and a sound mind”. A lifetime to go.

[@nelibhala]

First thing I died to- my disbelief (just reading the. Bible like a child has made all the difference) Next- my heart (forgiveness and grace in my co parenting dynamic and leaving it at the cross instead of retaliating) Next- laziness (been exercising and man I just want to not do it!!!!! But I must pray for me😮‍💨) Most importantly- my consumption of cannabis (context, I strongly believe I’m called to work in the cannabis industry on an educational basis but my consumption of 13 years blurs the purpose - to reinforce the goodness of the plant medicine and address the idolatry a dependence on cannabis is. As a plant, God knew what he was creating but as with everything else the enemy has perverted it) and the fact remains, there is so much goodness to it that God made of it - read on the human Endocannabinoid System and how cannabis works with it like no other medicine- again I say God knows what He’s doing but the devil perverts. That’s just practically what I’ve realised. Not by my might nor by my power because the Lord knows when trials and sorrow comes I just wanna yell, bite, smoke a jay and zone out scrolling til I fall asleep) Mercy said no, we’re gonna work on that.

[@torianalexia]

with that title, this video is right on time. Keep going, you are definitely walking in your purpose with this channel. thanks Megan!💛

[@cheyennel1164]

Once you fully surrender it feels like you’re being peeled from the inside onto the outside but it’s highly important for different reasons & various seasons. Surrendering is like yielding your fruit to the farmer with expertise, who will then convert it to a bountiful harvest. He gives you the seed and then shows you how to properly care for it by providing guidance and truth plus a well of water- living water

[@ashli1590]

Metacognition is the process of thinking about your thinking

[@theonly.erionna]

No words can express the way I’m feeling right now and Ms. Megan it really show that the Lord is with you! 🙌🏽❤️

[@MzNiahtheyonly]

This message was literal an answer to my tears! I needed to hear this! The mess of habits created from allowing my flesh to lead my actions is going to take care and time with God to undo! Yes, it will be hard but God has given me the power to take these feelings and thoughts captive and casting them out if they do not align to the word of God! Whew! Thank you God for your word and direction! Thank you so much Megan for being obedient and sharing this message!

[@purposebyhisdesign7614]

4 years ago I divorced after 22 yrs. This was my first time at the tender age of 44😉 living on my own. I had went from sleeping in the same room with my sisters to being married with children to my own apartment and I was starting to empty nest😩 it has been a journey that has been hard but I am grateful to God for carrying me through. So I understand that part when you mention going from your mom’s house etc.. That full surrender is hard I’m still working that out but it is for sure what He is requiring of me🙏🏾❤️

[@kayravin3021]

Thank God for you Megan 🙏🏽 God bless you always ❤

[@TOSORIO-q8h]

When I tell you I get sooooo excited when I see a new episode. I fly to my space get comfortable. Because this is like therapy.

[@cpalmer0903]

Even though it's hard FULLY surrounding you, REALLY see the hand of God.

[@mocha4758]

Thank You God For Allowing People Like Megan To Be Placed Into My Life! Thank You For How Far You Have Brought Her, And Thank You Megan For Such A Beautiful Word, As Well As Saying Yes To Allow God To Move Through You To Connect To His People 🤲🏾🙏🏾🤍!

[@tealiciaharbin3482]

HEEEYYYY YALL. Megan. Thank you for your YES and helping us walk through our YES. God bless you and your family

[@astoldbymeek]

Thank you for this. This has been my revelation as well. I have also lived my life giving contributions and not fully surrendering. This year that changes

[@marlenerobinson2747]

Thank you authentic sprit 🙏🏿

[@cheyennel1164]

After I listened to your podcast yesterday, I literally got on the Bible app and the points to ponder paragraph was titled “Think about what you think about.” It was crazy because when you said it in your podcast I wasn’t quite sure what that meant until you fully elaborated on it. It was all just truly divine like wow!!!!

[@Kimone.C.Smith.]

"Giving God a contribution when He deserves a sacrifice." My God!! LORD, You gave Your all for me therefore, may I surrender my ALL to You!!🥺🥺🙌🏾🙌🏾 Thank you for sharing Megan! This was so encouraging and as always, leave challenged! It's been a year of God's faithfulness to you and your family, He is sooo good! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🤎🤎🤎 May the year ahead bring you even more of God's faithfulness far beyond imagining! 🛖🛖🛖🛖🤍🤍🤍🤍🤎🤎🤎🤎

[@lasugarbelle]

This is beautiful. Thank God and thank you for your obedience 💕

[@HaileyParks-xf3wf]

This showed up right on time. Thank you for sharing his Word. ❤️

[@genuinenae]

31:14 this few minutes ate me alive. Thank you, Megan. I needed this confirmation as I have been battling every life change you mentioned. God is working through you and it’s beautiful. I even put off watching this episode because I knew I would be convicted. ❤ Thank you for your obedience as you are making waves.

[@izmyster4815]

This right here is it. My walk with God in a podcast. I'm so thankful for my Father. It was my yes to Jesus.

[@shanel1714]

This video is so on time. My pastor was talking about how we’ve gotten too fleshly as a people , and need to seriously consecrate. My journey coming back to God has bee a whirl wind, but now I’m the space of full surrender and serious consecration. Best vid to come out for the time we’re in, and i love seeing you by yourself even though you gel really well with others!

[@ChrisTeeO.]

This episode is so personal and the angles are perfect! Yes, true surrender yields to Lordship and Liberty! Sis, keep pressing forward, His Purpose is the prize and the kingdom is now! 👏🏽👏🏽❤️🙏🏽

[@synthiamoore1550]

Thank you your obedience….you spoke to my surrendered journey thus far. The self interrogation is critical!! May God continue to bless you🙏🏽❤️✨

[@chrissyprimo711]

Whewww! Megan girl 🙌🏾🙌🏾🥺 thanks so much for your episodes they helped me so much grow closer to god! This was for me I haven’t even finished it yet , “ I knew I needed help being new “ thank you Jesus!

[@deanabyrd4285]

This is incredibly helpful for me. I'm currently in a similar season, and I often say, "Okay, Lord, let's have our therapy session." Then I do exactly what you described: I interrogate my thoughts, decisions, and feelings. It's such an uncomfortable season and can feel a bit lonely, as He has removed so many things and people from my life. However, seeing where you are today gives me hope and strength to keep going, knowing that He is molding and guiding me through this time and into something greater. ❤

[@Milli7771]

Literally can not shake the fact that God wants me all in all around all encompassing

[@deborahkoumah7617]

“When you feel like you have no way out surrender “ so good!

[@indira2484]

Thank you so much Megan for sharing this message. I watched it twice. Intense, suicidal thoughts have had a stronghold on me for the past two weeks. I’m in therapy, I have a supportive and encouraging circle of close friends that care about me and my well-being, and I’m very active in my church and praying constantly, but none of that seems to be of use in releasing this stronghold. I’m glad that you provided a practical and transparent way to combat these thoughts.

[@sheenasassnett621]

When I tell you it’s so hard. I can’t keep living like this, I’m so tired. The only time I have ever been truly happy in life as an adult is when I was living for the lord. I’m just tired I have to surrender completely and not look back.

[@xvando]

Amen, fully for God even through all that comes . He gave himself fully for us

[@sduerson08]

Thank you so much Megan…this is what I needed!

[@nubieyamckinley6089]

Thank you for your platform and thank you for setting the example bc not many people do so it’s nice to see you develop and grow, bc it encourages me to keep going. God Bless you and NEVER give up. Luv yah ☺️💕

[@TheLiveKemeticBibStudy]

Changed, in the matter of days, CONFIDENT then things changed And I had to depend on the Lord and trust in the Lord ❤❤❤

[@GodedifiesTiara]

This whole episode resonates so much with me!! I've just gone through this same experience starting August 2023, when I gave my life to Jesus. Renewing of the mind is so vital. God is absolutely getting his people on track in this season. I can only imagine what's to come but until then all we can do is continue sharing the good news and picking up our cross daily. Thank you, Jesus, for your redemption. Anyone watching, please just say YES. Try him. You won't regret it. Keep doing great girl! Love you sis

[@CROrsak]

So so so timely. We are grateful for your yes🙏🏼.

[@ykquon]

Genuinely so proud of you and your transformation and your allowing of God to fully take over Megan!! I’ve been watching since your old podcast and I seen something in you that first podcast with Jackie that the Lord was working in you, you just had a hunger that I’ve seen before because I had it before really knowing the Lord. and we are now seeing the fruit of it all, keep being faithful and unapologetically on fire for the Lord ❤️‍🔥

[@abullard8409]

Thank you sis. From the Bahamas 🇧🇸

[@taycapri]

This was very helpful and encouraging Megan. Thank you.

[@Abands5]

Praise God.. I just recently in my 40s said God I give me all to you. I can't do this the way I have been. I appreciate this so much. I, too, was raised in the church and thought that I knew more about God than my piers. Not realizing that I did many things for self and to be recognized . I had not put him above my selfish wants and baaaaabeee, I had to learn it the hard way. Anyways thank you praise Him and continue to do his will. I love you with the love of the lord

[@onintsoadiarimalala9880]

I can relate so much. Grew up in church too and thought that i knew God but it wasn’t a relationship but more like a religion and i was not surrendering to Him at all. Thanks Meg for your yes to the Lord 🙏

[@InTheRecoveryRoom]

It’s OUR delight to continually PRAY with and for you !!! #Blazethetrail2-UNHINGEDsurrender

[@daijaaaliyah8975]

The timing on this is insane, I never watch podcasts but I was led to this one!

[@RielinREALife]

Megan, I love you. This is where I stand. I have to give Jesus my all. He deserves it all today. I literally brought the new year in church. And been going to church for weeks. But I want more of him and I want him to have all of me

[@FinallyMadeItTowing]

Omg I just went through everything you just talk about. And thank the lord he left the 99 to come get me. I cant believe how much I can relate to your story.❤ thank you so much for telling your story.

[@Lisa-cx6yb]

The part where you said, "How did I participate in this?" 💯 🔥 This sit down was so good!!

[@demetrianapritchett]

Wow, my contribution does nothing but my sacrifice can change EVERYTHING! ❤️‍🔥🙌🏾

[@jazzya7383]

Not how did you know I needed this

[@LuthandoThando-c5p]

I love you Megan ❤️ a full sacrifice indeed is needed.

[@jasminemcalister]

Megan, you just made me scream !!! I knew I needed a word in regard to surrender and this deliver the word. I will be reading Romans 12 tonight for bible study. I receive the word and saying Yes, God I trust you to steer me with your word. I receive, I receive! Thank you God for speaking through her

[@sarriahphifer6272]

Girl your obedience is tied to so many others. I know I’m one,,,, it’s time❤

[@Sassi_Alysha777]

YAY!!!!!! Congratulation on this awesome year of growth and progression in your life.... This was a true blessing. A lot of confirmation for me. Thank you sooo much

[@MajaliaMTucker]

This video saved my life and my marriage… thank you for answering him and surrendering!

[@MichelleGonzales-q6u]

GOD BLESS YOU.

[@jacquanahughes6433]

Thank you for your heart and speaking out my thoughts, not a contribution its a sacrifice! Thank you for speaking your journey. I can relate with this message, because I was living as a wife and now a widow who has a heart to live for God and trust him in my journey. This has really step on my toes,and will allow me to really reflect!

[@kendaedwards2860]

Lord such a powerful word!!! That journal prompt definitely rocked me but it’s so needed!!!❤🛖

[@Keyanapeebles]

Thank you! You’re a gem in the Kingdom. To God be the Glory🙏🏾

[@LyfeOfHers]

thank you for the journal prompt, i will be applying this to my journal.....as someone who is currently trying to grow in Christ and get closer to him I have to have a heart check to make sure that everything I'm doing in this journey is for good intention and not just satisfaction

[@Mamaisthesource]

One of my favorite verses ever Romans 12:2 ❤

[@__courtney.j]

Girl! The way that the Lord is working through you to help us! 🙌🏽

[@thaliesigaraille]

This is powerful Megan. I’m proud of you. Recognizing the pride from growing up in the church and relying on that knowledge versus actually seeking God , being fed daily, and developing a close relationship. I can relate.

[@IndiaArieeTV]

This was such a good episode, being such a newbie in my walk with Christ I do see at times I straddle the fence of giving myself completely. I have to have a daily reminder that it’s what I must do.

[@jojobunny1796]

Very much on time and definitely needed. I’m happy that God has placed this on your heart to share. Thank you!

[@tanjelareborn2154]

I REALLY needed to hear this today Megan. I’m in tears. Thank you my sister in Christ! This was confirmation for me.

[@troy_916]

Thank you!! I so needed to hear this. God woke me up to open KZbin and hear this message ❤️

[@TheDraeleon]

Thank you for your honesty. ❤ I feel this message to the center... to the bone. Thanks!

[@tryittamixo]

i am grateful for your mentorship megan i pray you are taking care of yourself i know it’s a heavy load you’re carrying

[@SHANAI-]

I truly am grateful for this episode, I’ve been struggling lately and these are the questions I have to ask myself and I must fully surrender to God. Thank you!

[@TheLiveKemeticBibStudy]

Love your channel… would love to see more examples being thought of before hand… prayer circles… times you stepped to the side even in your heart/mind… especially with big moments!! Love you though and congratulations

[@Melissakay3]

ALL OF THIS🗣️✝️thank you so much for sharing. So relatable and so inspiring.

[@kyeashapeterson04]

God is looking for full YES. Thanks Megan! Always amazing to listen to your platform. ❤🙏🏾

[@Neeallday]

I love you lady, I praise God for you sis!🙌🏼😇🙏🏼💝💖🫶🏼🥰🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@tesheniahughes1098]

This episode was a God movement. I have been feeling unsettled for about a month. To the point of feeling anxious. But God said it’s urgency not anxiety. He wants all of me and this was confirmation

[@girlcodebymartha]

You podcast is so healing to the soul. God is most def using you!

[@chinenyenkemakolam6904]

Thank you Lord for making me find you😭😭

[@Jacob-vb1fe]

This is a very beneficial video. I’m going to start interrogating anything that goes against the word of God

[@Akingdomdiva1985]

This was very encouraging. Thank you Megan for your transparency. I am excited to see how the Lord continues to work through and grow you in your walk.

[@ms_snazzy_jazzy2500]

Powerful and convicting in the best way! Thanks for this!!!

[@pamelajohnson3372]

Thank you for your vulnerability!! ❤

[@jamiahkittell]

So Godly proud of you Meg! Ive watched pretty much every episode since the other Podcast and to see God transform you along your journey has me in awe and also demonstrates how God uses it all and the end result is always for his glory! To see you incorporate bible verses, and more of God into these episodes is really amazing! I thought I was learning something and building a relationship with God with the other podcast ( which I still was ) but who knew God Had more inside of you!? He took you along this journey to go deeper with him & I speak for myself & Im sure a lot of others, I have also went from surface to intimacy with the Lord over the past year as well, I have been in church for most of my life, stop going for a while and last year started going back after getting that pull from the Lord through watching your podcasts! Keep letting your light shine, being obedient & sensitive to the Lord! He has his hand on you! You are much appreciated & every episode is ministering! 💗✨💗✨

[@Neeallday]

God doesn't want my contribution, He wants a full sacrifice!🙏🏼 My Pastor said it this way "God doesn't just want appointments with us (devotional time) He wants a moment by moment relationship and communication/communion with us. 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼😇🙏🏼💯👌🏼💓

[@ravenjohnson6871]

Megan, so blessed you invite us into this space with you. Think about what you’re thinking about - metacognition. That shift is so key to breakdown strongholds!!! 24:02

[@iamBrianaT]

Thank you, Megan!! This was meant for me; I've been battling giving God a full yes and this has encouraged me. I don't even know why I've been battling this. I come from a Christian family and my dad is a preacher, but since I've been out on my own, I've been going through so much and now I want to get to a better place. I know I can't get to a better place until I say yes and surrender to God. So, thank you so much and keep allowing God to use you!! I am also a part of the village 🥰 Love you!!!

[@FloeticEnigma]

Submission, humility, surrender and wholeness are the words God has b even impressing on me this year and what I’ve working towards. This is good. It definitely resonates with everything God is dealing with me on currently.
