Luke 9:23-24

Luke 9:23-24

Then he said to the crowd "if any of you want to be my follower, you must give up your own way take up your cross daily and follow me. If you hang onto your life, you will lose it. But if you give up your life for my sake, you will save it."

O/A- one day every knee will bow in front of the one and only true God in heaven. this life is not about our will or our wants and desires. It is ultimately about the will of God and doing his work here on earth. We are vessels here to spread the message and to show others that, that's the only way to heaven is through Jesus Christ. By helping spread God's word and showing others through action that a life lived in closeness with the Lord is the only way to truly live with joy, peace, and true happiness. We must die to ourselves in order to live in Christ Jesus. He who lives in us must be greater than ourselves! 

Father your way is the only way. No matter what one day all of us will be in front of you in one day we will be on bended knee and we will confess. I pray father that the scales could be removed now so that all can experience the true joy, peace, and happiness that comes from you. There's nothing in this world that could ever give us anything close to what you can Lord so I pray that you give us strength. And courage, no matter what we face father we know that you're walking with us. There is no mountain too tall no valley too low that we cannot conquer with you Lord. I lift this day up to you give you all the praise and glory in Jesus name amen.
