My beloved, you need to take up your cross and follow Me, if ye desire to fulfill all that I desire to fulfill in thy life. (Luke 9:8-26, Hebrews 12:1-2) Each man is given a certain number of days to accomplish the will of My Father. (Job 14:5) What will you do with your life? Will you live to please your flesh? (1 John 2:15-17) For if you save your flesh, you will lose it. Or will you surrender your will unto Me? For if you lose your life for My sake, you shall save it. What can a man give in exchange for his soul? (Matthew 16:18-27)
Make amends quickly while it yet day for the night comes when no man can work. (Matthew 5:23-26, Luke 14:25-35) What will ye do when the pressures of life try to overwhelm you? Will you cave in, or will you surrender those pressures of life unto Me, and accomplish only that which is pleasing unto Me? (Matthew 11:28-30, Zechariah 4:6, Philippians 4:13) For what will a man give in exchange for his soul?
The hour is at hand for you to take up your cross and follow Me, for tumultuous times draw near, and your safety is only truly found in Me. (John 10:1-18) I can do for you what no man can do for you. (Jeremiah 32:27, Ephesians 3:20) You must ever keep your eyes upon Me and allow Me to deliver thee. (Psalm 91) For in times past you have been consumed with the preservation of thy life. Allow Me to preserve thee. Allow Me to save thee, and take up your cross to follow Me, denying your flesh in living for Me, and if need be, in dying also. (Luke 9:23, Revelation 112:10-17) For to live is Christ, and to die is gain, (Philippians 1:19-30) says your Lord Jesus Christ.
