    Oooooohhhhhh! Oh my gosh! I literally thought I had to deny my feelings completely and like just be a robot for God. It means place God at the center of everything... obey Him. Think like Him... Allow Him to guide you... Ooohhhh! God bless Dr. Stanley a million fold! Thank you, sir!

      I didn't fully understand what taking up your cross daily meant either. I think that I heard somewhere that it's dying to oneself. So, after listening to Mr Stanley I understand it a little more. Not our will but God's will.

    God has Blessed me so much and helped me to grow with these teaching and preachings to walk away from a life in destruction or walk away from the sin that is in our life daily we have to pray that God strength us and study His Word and anything that hinders you from serving Him we should run from and not let satan have control of our life but to let God have total control in every decision we make great and small and I mean no one or nothing that keeps you from God everyday in our life we have to fight satan off

    To take up the cross means to be willing to face temptations, repent and do good works in the Lord's name. The cross represents temptation. To deny oneself is to love the Lord and our neighbor more than ourselves. To love the Lord is to love the good from Him. Good is of love and love is of good. His love is the Divine . The Lord's Divine Love is the Father in Him and what is in a person is the soul. The Soul of Jesus is the Father. That's how the Father and Son are one, one as Soul and Body in the Lord. Jesus said, My Father and I are one. Soul and body are one AMEN

      It's little bit I understand now this kind of explanation I almost cry and angry because I do t understand what mean. But I'm still struggle of this scripture because like me a always pray to God that he guide me to what his well to me
      But I also pray to God to help me that my child 8byears old well.stay with me because I want teach my child about God words God doing and also I want my child see how I serve God how I respect God command how I have fear in God its like I want my son see me that my doing until he grow up that's why even I ask pray to God to help me to guide me to do what his well for me but I still ask Gid until now that hoping my child well stay with me again. Because my child is in my husband and I leave my husband and my husband is unbeliever
      And this is what I struggle now if I deny myself or not..or I still my want because that's what I want my child stay with me back I pray that to God

    Thank you, am Blessed to understand the way of the Cross, The cross itself has two pieces one piece horizontally placed and the other is vertical. The horizontal one which carries the spread hands is the sign of touching other peoples life , so its good to talk to the Lord everyday how and who you should touch on that particular day, write them down and listen to the holy spirit, then you will find the best direction for that particular day. The vertical Piece is the one which the feet, heart and head are attached. This means it symbolize and reminds us to let our minds be transformed by God's word, our hearts to carry the message and do it with passion and our feet will only move in Jesus Direction no matter how stretched our hands, Thank you

    I so enjoy the biblical teachings of Dr. Stanley. I was raised as Baptist and participated in the AME church as well. I became a member of a nondenominational church up moving to the "city" but through it all, I watched and listened to Dr. Stanley periodically. Then I started having health issues. I was forced into disability retirement and it was during this time that I listened more and more to In Touch and Dr. Stanley. His teachings have helped me grow on my spiritual journey. I wish I would have taken them to heart when I first heard him many years ago. I'm grateful that God placed such a man as Dr. Charles F. Stanley to disciplinarian he is reaching so many of us who are hungry for understanding our role, our purpose in His overall plan. I pray God will continue to bless this man and. this ministry 💕Amen💕

    This teaching is absolutely correct and it also confirms word id received 😇 I asked the Lord not too long ago.... How do i have a real relationship with you....The Lord replied bring me into every desistion you make... 🙏🔥✝️
    Another word id received was regarding feelings....
    The Lord said our feelings serve us...we do not serve our feelings....
    We are to acknowledge our feelings ( positive or negative ) and take them to Jesus and let him take care of them, freeing us letting Jesus be our Lord and God! 🙏🔥✝️

    What does it mean to carry your cross daily? (Deny ourselves)
    Cease making yourself the object of action
    Self-denial is not about things hurts and things
    The heart and core of our lives
    A deliberate willful surrender of our lives
    Following him is a daily issue
    Choose daily to surrender our will and life to Him
    Putting Jesus at the heart of every thing

    This statement is fantastic news!!!
    To surrender means you become a slave by coercion.

    Amen. it's choosing God all the time. it's striving to be holy everyday of your life. it's putting your trust to God like a child literally. it's choosing to do what is good and right all the time. following God isn't really easy but will give peace in your heart. we are not perfect so if we commit sins we confess our sins and ask God's forgiveness. but always remember God knows what you're up to so if you think that you can just easily commit sins because you can just ask for forgiveness anyway, you're just fooling yourself because you cannot hide anything from Him. He knows what's on your heart and mind. in other words be serious when it comes to following Christ make Him a priority in your life. what usually happens is that we follow Christ based on convenience if it's not convenient to us we don't follow him.

  • @alexmala6483
    @alexmala6483 4 роки тому

    Sometimes it does mean that following Jesus we must deny things to ourselves. For example, do I go to see a football final or do I go to church? Do I upgrade to a newer, larger TV, or do I make a donation?However, the closer we walk with Jesus, the less of a sacrifice these choices will feel, until choosing to follow Jesus becomes a daily habit, a new way of life. At that point, we are a new creature. We are born again.
