Oasis Church Chicago

WE FOCUSED IN ON MATTHEW 27:27-40 WHERE WE SEE JESUS WALKING ALL THE WAY FOR US TO THE CROSS, AND A MAN NAMED SIMON CATCHING THE CALL OF WALKING WITH HIM TO SEE THE CALLING COMPLETED. WHEN WE WALK W/ JESUS, WE DIE TO OUR PLANS, AND OUR DESIRES. JESUS DIED WITH A CALLING AND A PURPOSE, AND WHEN WE DIE TO OUR AGENDA, AND LET HIS PLAN RULE, GOD MOVES. SIMON, A MAN WHO DIDN'T KNOW JESUS CAUGHT THIS. POINTED OUT IN A CROWD TO CARRY JESUS' CROSS, HE CARRIED THE WEIGHT FOR JESUS AND IT CHANGED THE TRAJECTORY OF HIS LIFE. WE ARE CALLED TO WALK ALL THE WAY WITH JESUS EVEN WHEN OTHERS WALK THE OPPOSITE WAY. WE ARE CALLED TO DIE TO SELF... YOU MAY THINK YOU ARE LOSING "EVERYTHING" BUT WHEN WE GO ALL THE WAY - WE ARE ACTUALLY GAINING "EVERYTHING" IN JESUS CHRIST. JESUS IS CALLING OUT TO YOU ASKING, "WILL YOU WALK W/ ME"
