READY TO BE BOUND OR DIE

Faithful followers of Christ are always ready to sacrifice everything they've been given, putting the will of the LORD above personal safety, leading one to affirm "to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain" (Matt. 10:39, Rom. 12:1, Philippians 1:21). They prioritize their spiritual purpose, even if it brings suffering, focusing on service rather than comfort (Mark 10:45, Luke 9:23, Rom. 5:3-6, Phil. 3:7-8,
However, the readiness to be bound or die for Christ, represents a deep, often fatalistic commitment in Christian ministry, viewing suffering and challenges not as failures, but as inevitable, ordained stepping stones for fulfilling God's purpose and glory (Job 2:3, 4:7-8, Luke 13:4 & 22:33). 

PRAYER: Heavenly Father and Awesome God, thank You for the revelation of Your Word and presence in me, which keeps me willing and ready to be bound for Your Love and to die for Your sake. Please keep me strengthened and equipped to remain victoriously triumphant as I pass through various challenging situations for the sake of the Gospel; in Jesus' Name,
Amen.

From Acts 21:12-13
