We sing or say to the Lord, "for your glory I will do anything? but will we?

Following God requires sacrifice,

Matthew 16:24-26

24 Then Jesus told his disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. 25 For whoever would save his life[a] will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.26 For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? Or what shall a man give in return for his soul?

Jesus tells us in order to follow Him, we must deny ourselves, take up our cross and follow HIm.

But can we say that in the mist of temptation not just any temptation... but the very thing you have prayed for. It looks like any answered prayed but it is from the enemy himself.

vs 26 For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul?

Are we willing to wait and go through the sanctifying process in order to be like Christ? or Will we take shortcuts that ultimately led to our fall.
