LOSING YOUR LIFE IN ORDER TO FIND IT Then He called the crowd to Him along with his disciples and said: If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for me and for the gospel will save it. (Mark 8 Vs 34 & 35) What a difference it would make to the spreading of the Gospel if we all could identify the purpose that God has for us to see His work being accomplished here on the face of the earth. We have this tendency to bring our lives to a point of limitations, yet Gods purpose for our lives exceeds all boundries and goes beyond our natural limitations. What prevents many us from reaching our full potential and purpose in life is that we are living in a Dimension of Truth, which simply means living in part truth and not whole truth To live the whole and complete truth of God is, when through salvation and the acceptance of Christ, we identify the full purpose of God for us here on earth. Many of us are living on salvation and grace, but to complete the will of God for our lives, this is just not enough. How do we explain Matthew 16 Vs 27 For the Son of Man is going to come in his Fathers glory with his angels, and then he will reward each person according to what he has done. where each man will be rewarded according to his works. LABOURING FOR CHRIST GUARANTEES YOU A CROWN OF RIGHTEOUSNESS. If you want to find your life in Christ then you have to lose the life that prevents you from serving Him to the fullest. This means:- REAL DISCIPLESHIP IMPLIES REAL COMMITMENT TO SERVE CHRIST MEANS PLEDGING OUR ENTIRE EXISTENCE FOR HIS SERVICE WHEN WE GIVE OUR LIVES IN SERVICE TO CHRIST, WE DISCOVER THE REAL PURPOSE OF LIVING. There should be no compromise when it comes to serving Christ. We cannot serve our natural lives and serve Christ. We must able to forsake all for the sake of the Gospel. We must be able to lay down our lives for the cause and we can only do this if we live in the complete truth of God. LABOURING WITHOUT ANY RESERVATIONS. HAVE A BLESSED DAY IN SERVING CHRIST.
