Philippians 3:10. No resurrection power without death first. Who has to die if Christ already died and rose? We do! We need to die to ourselves daily. Our selves are selfish and our selves will sabotage the plans and the power of God. When we deny ourselves and die to self and take up our cross daily, we live in His power and His life. This is not easy but it is worth it; not just for heaven sake but for our sake right now in this life. Luke 9:23-24 Then he said to them all, “If anyone wants to follow after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross daily, and follow me. For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life because of me will save it.
