Living for Jesus Christ means that,
I love the LORD my God with all my heart, all my soul, all my mind, and all my strength. And, that I Love my neighbor as myself. (See Mark 12:30-31)
I received His new life and I no longer live for myself. Instead, I live for Christ, who died for my sin and was raised for me. (See 2. Corinthians 5:15)
I give my body to God because of all He has done for me. I let it be a living and holy sacrifice, the kind He will find acceptable. This is truly the way to worship Him. (See Romans 12:1)
I give up my own way, take up my cross daily, and follow Him. (See Luke 9:23)
For I don’t live for myself, but I live to please the Lord. (See Romans 14:7-8)
Even if I suffer for doing what is right, God will reward me for it. So I don’t worry or be afraid of being threatened. Instead, I worship Christ as Lord of my life. (See 1. Peter 3:14-15)
I have been given not only the privilege of trusting in Christ but also the privilege of suffering for Him. (See Philippians 1:29)
I Humble myself before the Lord, and He will lift me up in honor. (See James 4:10)
