Deny Yourself

September 24, 2023 • Pastor Mike Towner • 1 Peter 1:18–19, 1 Corinthians 6:19–20, Luke 9:23, Ecclesiastes 2:1–11, Romans 6:6

Disciples deny themselves; but denying yourself doesn't mean what we traditionally think of in this context. When Jesus says in Luke 9:23: "“If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.", He is referring to giving God full control of our lives. As Pastor Mike put it "Self-denial is a marvelously gracious invitation". Choose to deny yourself and let God show you the plans He has for you!
