Crucify Your Flesh
Crucify your flesh and let it become one with me. Put away all your fleshly desires and sacrifice yourself daily for me. It’s easy to justify your actions and go on living as you do, but there is more I want to give to you but you keep holding me back. I need to be your all-in-all with nothing in-between us. Sacrifice of your wants and needs is part of our relationship.
Do everything with my Truth in mind. Keep nothing for yourself. When you surrender all, you truly begin living for me. When you hold nothing back you gain access to the courts of Heaven. Present yourself as a holy sacrifice to me. Leave nothing left to pick back up after meeting with me. Leave your old self behind and depend totally upon me.
Remember who I am and all that I have called you to be. Don’t fall for other ideas that are generated by man, for they are meant to bring destruction down upon your head. Stay close to me, looking to me to supply all your needs. There is no need to look back at what once was for that leads you down a path of destruction.
Carry me with you night and day. Do not compartmentalize and leave me alone when you are tempted to stray. Keep your eyes on me especially when temptation comes knocking at your door. I love you with an everlasting love and I will not leave you even when you stray. You have defined me with your idea of love and not my greater standard of love.
Each of you were created in my image and I have given you the deposit of my Spirit to help you stay on track. My Spirit will never lead you astray, but will constantly bring my Word into your mind to lead you back to me. Remain strong in knowing my Word putting it into your mind and heart. Carry my Word with you wherever you go ready to use it at a moment’s notice. You carry your phone with you everywhere, so now carry my Word so it will be there at the ready.
Represent me well wherever you go and don’t forget who you are when temptation befalls you. You represent me always and it is not something you just turn on and off. Be the man or woman I created you to be and represent me well wherever you go. You are to be my light representing me well into the darkened places of the earth. Ask me for whatever you need and I will supply it. Come to me when you are weak and I will give you strength you know nothing of. Cast all your cares upon me for I will cover you always in my love.
