Day 15: Wholehearted Commitment
Scripture
Luke 9:62 – “Jesus replied, ‘No one who puts a hand to the plow and looks back is fit for service in the kingdom of God.’”
Prayer Prompt
“Lord, You have called me to follow You with my whole heart, leaving behind all distractions and half-hearted devotion. Today, I surrender every part of my life to You—my time, my relationships, my goals, and my plans. I choose to commit fully to Your calling, not looking back or wavering in my pursuit of You. Strengthen me to stay focused and to press forward with unwavering devotion, regardless of the challenges that may come. Help me to live with a heart that is fully yielded to Your will, and to follow You with passion and faithfulness all the days of my life.”
Reflection
In Luke 9:62, Jesus makes it clear that following Him requires undivided commitment. There is no room for looking back or holding on to the past while trying to move forward in the Kingdom. A wholehearted commitment means making the decision to follow Jesus fully, without hesitation or regret, even when faced with challenges or the pull of old habits. It’s a call to fix our eyes on Him alone, letting go of any distractions that keep us from His will. Today, reflect on whether there are areas in your life where you’ve been holding back, hesitant to give all to Him. True commitment requires a focused heart that says, "I am all in," trusting that the journey with Christ is worth every sacrifice.
Application

Reflect on one area of your life where you may be holding back—whether it’s your time, relationships, finances, or personal goals. Is there something that you’ve been hesitant to fully surrender to God?
Make a Clear, Intentional Decision:
Today, choose to commit that area to God completely. Make a specific decision to let go of distractions, worries, or fears, and trust God with your whole heart. You could write down your commitment, share it with a friend for accountability, or pray through it, expressing your trust in God.
Take One Action Step:
Follow through with a tangible action today that aligns with your commitment. For example, if you’re committing your time to God, spend an uninterrupted time with Him today.
