Now lets get started. Passage Number 1.
The first verse on the subject of Commitment is Daniel chapter 1, verses 6 through 13. It says:
Now among these of the children of Judah were Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah. The prince
of the eunuchs gave names to them: to Daniel he gave the name Belteshazzar; to Hananiah,
Shadrach; to Mishael, Meshach; and to Azariah, Abednego. But Daniel purposed in his heart that
he would not defile himself with the king’s delicacies, nor with the wine which he drank.
Therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself.
Now God made Daniel find kindness and compassion in the sight of the prince of the eunuchs.
The prince of the eunuchs said to Daniel, “I fear my lord the king, who has appointed your food and
your drink. For why should he see your faces worse looking than the youths who are of your own age?
Then you would endanger my head with the king.” Then Daniel said to the steward whom the prince of
the eunuchs had appointed over Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah: “Test your servants,
I beg you, ten days; and let them give us vegetables to eat and water to drink. Then
let our faces be examined before you, and the face of the youths who eat of the king’s delicacies;
and as you see, deal with your servants.” Passage Number 2. The second verse in our
study of Commitment is found in Psalm chapter 37, verses 5 through 6. It says:
Commit your way to Yahweh. Trust also in him, and he will do this:
he will make your righteousness shine out like light, and your justice as the noon day sun.
Passage Number 3. For our third verse, we turn in our Bible to Proverbs chapter 16,
verses 1 through 3. It reads: The plans of the heart belong to man,
but the answer of the tongue is from Yahweh. All the ways of a man are clean in his own eyes,
but Yahweh weighs the motives. Commit your deeds to Yahweh, and your plans shall succeed.
Passage Number 4. This is from Luke chapter 14, verses 25 through 33. The scripture says:
Now great multitudes were going with him. He turned and said to them, “If anyone comes to me,
and doesn’t disregard his own father, mother, wife, children, brothers, and sisters,
yes, and his own life also, he can’t be my disciple. Whoever doesn’t bear his own
cross and come after me, can’t be my disciple. For which of you, desiring to build a tower,
doesn’t first sit down and count the cost, to see if he has enough to complete it? Or perhaps,
when he has laid a foundation and isn’t able to finish, everyone who sees begins to mock him,
saying, ‘This man began to build and wasn’t able to finish.’
Or what king, as he goes to encounter another king in war, will not sit down first and consider
whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand? Or
else, while the other is yet a great way off, he sends an envoy and asks for conditions of peace.
So therefore, whoever of you who doesn’t renounce all that he has, he can’t be my disciple.
Passage Number 5. The fifth verse is from Luke chapter 9, verses 57 through 62. The Bible says:
As they went on the way, a certain man said to him, “I want to follow you wherever you go,
Lord.” Jesus said to him, “The foxes have holes and the birds of the sky have nests, but the Son
of Man has no place to lay his head.” He said to another, “Follow me!” But he said, “Lord,
allow me first to go and bury my father.” But Jesus said to him, “Leave the dead to bury their
own dead, but you go and announce God’s Kingdom.” Another also said, “I want to follow you, Lord,
but first allow me to say good-bye to those who are at my house.” But Jesus said to him,
“No one, having put his hand to the plow and looking back, is fit for God’s Kingdom.”

Passage Number 6 is from Matthew chapter 22, verses 37 through 40. It says:
Jesus said to him, “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and
with all your mind.’ This is the first and great commandment. A second likewise is this, ‘You shall
love your neighbor as yourself.’ The whole law and the prophets depend on these two commandments.”
Passage Number 7. The seventh verse is found in Romans chapter 12,
verses 1 through 2. The Bible says: Therefore I urge you, brothers,
by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which
is your spiritual service. Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing
of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God.
Passage Number 8. The eighth verse on the subject of Commitment is from Matthew chapter 16,
verses 21 through 26. It reads: From that time, Jesus began to show
his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders,
chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and the third day be raised up. Peter took him aside
and began to rebuke him, saying, “Far be it from you, Lord! This will never be done to you.” But he
turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me, for you are not
setting your mind on the things of God, but on the things of men.” Then Jesus said to his disciples,
“If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me.
For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, and whoever will lose his life for my sake
will find it. For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his life?
Or what will a man give in exchange for his life? Passage Number 9. Our ninth verse is from
Deuteronomy chapter 6, verses 4 through 8. The passage states:
Hear, Israel: Yahweh is our God. Yahweh is one. You shall love Yahweh your God with all your
heart, with all your soul, and with all your might. These words, which I command you today,
shall be on your heart; and you shall teach them diligently to your children,
and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way,
and when you lie down, and when you rise up. You shall bind them for a sign on your hand,
and they shall be for frontlets between your eyes. Passage Number 10. Our tenth and final verse
on the subject of Commitment is from Luke chapter 9, verses 23 through 24. It says:
He said to all, “If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross,
and follow me. For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever will lose his
life for my sake will save it. This concludes our Bible study on the topic of Commitment.
