We must surrender our self-sufficiency and pride.

“For thus said the high and exalted One, Inhabiting eternity, and holy [is] His name: `In the high and holy place I dwell, And with the bruised and humble of spirit, To revive the spirit of the humble, And to revive the heart of bruised ones,’

—Isaiah 57:15 (Young’s Literal Translation)

We must surrender our self-sufficiency and pride and humble ourselves and confess that without the saving grace of our Lord God we are wretched sinners. We must admit that without His help we can’t do anything at all.Our intimacy with God determines the course of our lives. As long as we hold anything at all back from God, we cannot know Him completely or fully experience His love. When we surrender totally to Him, we will experience His power and peace manifesting in our lives.He asks for our willing surrender so that He can give us the best blessings He has to offer. It only makes sense to surrender to God, because when we do, we grow close to Him and we can become and achieve everything the Lord God has planned for us.
