SUNDAY SERVICE.
TOPIC: THE COURSE OF BEING A TRUE DISCIPLE.
TEXT: LUK. 14:25-35. MARK 8:34-38.
MINISTER: PROPHETESS VICTORIA JOSEPH.
You are all welcome to this great service in Jesse name.
It is good to serve God and be committed to His service. And if you are not committed in serving God, you will be committed in serving the devil.
Your growth is your increase in the kingdom. When Jesus was on earth, He go about preaching and multitude follows Him. But 90% of these followers are miracle seekers. Same way today, many people come to church just to be a miracle seeker, and not disciple. Miracle seekers can get the miracle and still end up in hell, but disciples follow Jesus to the end miracle or not. These are the ones that have assurance of making heaven. Jesus said whosoever must follow Him must deny himself first and carry his cross, these are the qualification of a disciple. We all come to church as a miracle seeker, but we should graduate from that to being a disciple.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO CARRY YOUR CROSS?
Whatever it takes to follow Jesus in life is your cross. The things you bear for Christ sake is your cross. There are many things you will go through and people will mock you for it, bear it, you will soon laugh.
WHAT ARE THE ACTIVES OF A TRUE DISCIPLE?
1) You must be born again. Not church goer.
2) There must be self denier. Being a disciple must cost you something. You must be able to do everything that will make you get to heaven at last. Let Jesus be number one in your life, you don't make decisions without Him.
3) You must be committed to the will of the master. MARK 8:35.
- surrender yourself to His service.
- be committed to all of your assignments.
- don't miss any fellowship with Him.
- win souls to His kingdom.
- don't have hand in anything that will damage His image in your life. Keep His commandments.
WHAT IS THE REWARD OF A TRUE DISCIPLE?
1) You will be a citizen of His kingdom. COL. 1:12.
2) You always receive answers to prayers. JOHN 14:13-14.
3) You'll be protected, the wicked one can not touch you, you are the apple of God's eyes.
4) You make heaven at last. LUK. 9:24-26. REV. 20:14-16.
