Dying Daily?


2 CHRONICLES 16:9 HCSB
For the eyes of Yahweh roam throughout the earth to show Himself strong for those whose hearts are completely His.

ME: Lord, here is my heart, take it and make it yours.

JESUS: No. I will not take it. Give it to me.

ME: Okay, I give you my heart.

JESUS: I want all of your heart.

ME: I gave it to you. What part haven't I given you?

For a few months now He has been showing me how much of my heart I haven't given Him.

Luke 9:23 And he said to all, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.

So then, brothers, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh. For if you live according to the flesh you will die, but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the flesh, you will live. 14 For those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God.

1Cor 11:1. You must follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ


"Paul served as an under-shepherd of Christ and was filled by Jesus himself.  The more Paul was full of Jesus the less room he had for himself.  As Paul was crucified, daily, he was becoming less.  And the more he could be a living example of Christ, the more people could see and experience the Living God through Paul."

Galatians 5:24   And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
