Greater love has no one than this,
that one lay down his life for his friends.

John 15:13

No Greater Love

recently listened as my daughter played a song by a young Christian lady that
states, “Sometimes I think it would be easier to die for You than to live for You.”
IThere is profound truth in this, for dying for Christ necessitates that we die one
time, but living for Him requires that we die daily. It is a great paradox in the
Kingdom of God that all who would live must die, while all who seek to protect their
life will lose it.

I would encourage you to pray and ask the Father for wisdom and understanding
before reading this chapter, for its message is more difficult than any chapter written
thus far. The flesh will despise what is written here, but it is my hope that many
women will sense the seal of the Holy Spirit upon these words.

Every member of the Kingdom of God is called to die to self. They are called to lose
their life that they may find it. They are called to have no will or agenda or initiative
of their own. They are to find their purpose and reason for living in another.

We are told that “the head of man is Christ.” This implies that man is to have no head
of his own. Man is to live to do the will of Yahshua. Man is to have no initiative of his
own. Man has been purchased with the blood of Christ and he now belongs totally
to another.

I Corinthians 6:20
For you have been bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your
body.

I Corinthians 7:23
You were bought with a price; do not become slaves of men.

Romans 14:7-8
For not one of us lives for himself, and not one dies for himself; for if we
live, we live for the Lord, or if we die, we die for the Lord; therefore
whether we live or die, we are the Lord's.
