No matter what your enemies are doing, if you can retain your joy, you will keep winning. Joy is a heavenly virtue that makes the best of man on earth.

CARRYING THE CROSS

CARRYING THE CROSS     

Luke 9:23-27
Devotional:-“Then He said to them all, "If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me” (v.23) NKJV


    Disciples of Jesus must know that, we must pass through pain to access our gain. It is not going to be easy to change from what we have grown up to be for several years. It will be painful experience to unlearn the wrong we have been so used to and adjust to the will of God. God’s word says, even Jesus suffer to learn obedience to God (Hebrew 5:8).

Each one has to carry his/her own cross to be able to follow Christ. Cross here refers to inconveniences. Until we are ready to go through the inconveniences, we may not be able to adjust to Christ. Pain is a sign of dislocation and the solution is to relocate back to God. God trains His own children with challenges and we don't call it problem (Hebrews 12:6-11). A boxer needs to fight to win. So, fighting is a challenge and not a problem. Therefore, braze up and stop complaining or weeping. 

God is your father. He loves you and cannot fail you (Deuteronomy 8:2-3). Refuse to turn back from following the Lord notwithstanding your situation. Your faith is just been tested and when you pass, you will be promoted (James 1:12). God has prepared you for what you are going through and He knows you can overcome (1 Corinthians 10:13). So, rise up and be strong (1 John 5:4). You will surely pass. Peace!

Prayer – Lord, give me the grace to stand strong to my victory.
