129. Reasons to Die for Jesus #2
Description
Floyd McClung continues to share with us and in this episode he talks about what the Spirit is doing across the world and how we can respond by laying down our lives for Jesus.
Following Jesus means giving up our rights
“When we die, we know we can take our heart to heaven if we follow and love Jesus…But we can take one more thing. We can take other people with us to heaven too.”
‘For what is our hope, our joy, or the crown in which we will glory in the presence of our Lord Jesus when he comes? Is it not you?’ (1 Thessalonians 2:19).
The second reason to die for Jesus
“The Spirit of God is moving in our planet in a most awesome and unusual way right now in our lifetime.”
But Floyd challenges us by asking whether we will align our life to God’s Spirit by choosing to reject our western materialism and be willing to allow God to turn our lives upside down?
Jesus (the Lamb of God) is worthy of our sacrifice
Our motivation to obey the Great Commission is found in Revelation 5...
“Worthy is the Lamb, who was slain, to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength and honour and glory and praise!” (Rev 5:12).
If we give our lives for the Lamb of God and for the sake of the Gospel, Jesus will meet us in our hour of need as we trust him. As Corrie Ten Boom once said, "In the moment I needed the grace of God, the grace of God was there for me."
Floyd finishes by asking us whether we would be willing to say, "I will give my life because the Lamb is worthy".
