Absolute Surrender: A Deeply Spiritual Call to Yield Fully to the Will and Power of GodAndrew Murray (1828-1917) was a South African pastor, teacher, and prolific devotional writer whose works have inspired generations of Christians toward deeper faith and consecration. Born in Graaff-Reinet in the Cape Colony, Murray was educated in Scotland and the Netherlands before returning to South Africa to serve as a missionary and minister. A leader in the Dutch Reformed Church, he became widely known for his passionate preaching and his writings on prayer, humility, and the Holy Spirit. Murray authored more than 200 books and tracts, many of which remain enduring classics in Christian devotional literature.Absolute Surrender, first published in the late 19th century, is a powerful series of messages urging believers to yield every part of their lives to God without reservation. With clarity and compassion, Murray explains that true spiritual victory and joy come not through human effort, but through a heart fully surrendered to Christ’s will. Drawing on Scripture and personal insight, he offers encouragement to live a life of humility, obedience, and trust in God’s transforming grace. Revered for its simplicity and depth, Absolute Surrender continues to challenge and uplift readers seeking a closer walk with God.
