Randy Bell: Make Jesus The Center of Your Life (audio)

 

Matthew 16:24 (AMP)
Then Jesus said to His disciples, If anyone desires to be My disciple, let him deny himself [disregard, lose sight of, and forget himself and his own interests] and take up his cross and follow Me [cleave steadfastly to Me, conform wholly to My example in living and, if need be, in dying, also].

Mark 8:34-35 (AMP)

And Jesus called [to Him] the throng with His disciples and said to them, If anyone intends to come after Me, let him deny himself [forget, ignore, disown, and lose sight of himself and his own interests] and take up his cross, and [joining Me as a disciple and siding with My party] follow with Me [continually, cleaving steadfastly to Me]. For whoever wants to save his [higher, spiritual, eternal] life, will lose it [the lower, natural, temporal life which is lived only on earth]; and whoever gives up his life [which is lived only on earth] for My sake and the Gospel’s will save it [his higher, spiritual life in the eternal kingdom of God].

Your most important decision
#1 How you respond to Jesus Christ’s death and resurrection in relationship to your life is most important.
#2 How you live because of your first decision follows immediately behind your first decision.

Command 28: Deny Yourself and Think Like Jesus Part 2 (audio/video)

“The Lord did not say to take up his cross but take up your cross”

What is our cross?

The cross of heavy family responsibility
The cross of a thorn in the flesh
The cross of an unreasonable neighbor, family member, or government…

Your cross is a direct way to die to your desires, deny your own ways and endure the suffering and transformation necessary to sacrifice your life for the Lord and those He calls you to minister to.
