Cling unto Jesus

Sunday 7th February 2016

Topic: Cling unto Jesus.

Memory verse: Mark 8:34
  Then he called the crowd to him along with his disciples and said: “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me.

Memory verse: Mark 8:35
  For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me and for the gospel will save it.

Message:
  To cling to Jesus is to accept him with all your heart and walk in the paths he want you to walk,but not in the absence of problems and challenges.
       How to walk the Path.
1. You must be called to his kingdom and you must answer by accepting Jesus as your Lord.

2. You must deny your self.(:Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires and greed, which is idolatry. Col 3:5)

3. Follow him foolishly: Elisha refuse to stop  following Elijah. You must ignore all people's comments about your destiny.

4. Don't live for money,fame,post etc anyone that seek such will not last as a Christian. ( 1Tim6:9 .
9
NIV:Those who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction.)
   Elijah left all to follow a man of God and clung unto him till the end,you must also make your decision.
   Lack of money will make you compromise your destiny and decision with Jesus.

Note
  Sing with me; ' I got my mind made-up and I won't turn back because I want to see my Jesus one day.............Good by world...I stay longer with you.............. have made up my mind to go God's way for the rest of life'

Prayer:
  I receive grace to stand and cling to you till the end in Jesus name.
