Pure Glory

by Apostle Gabriel Cross

Integrity – An undivided or unbroken completeness or totality with nothing wanting; moral soundness. The quality or state of being undivided. Virtue, honesty, godly character, decency, righteousness.

We must choose righteousness over family, friends, church, and ourselves.

One day when large groups of people were walking along with him, Jesus turned and told them, “Anyone who comes to me but refuses to let go of father, mother, spouse, children, brothers, sisters-yes, even one’s own self!-can’t be my disciple. Anyone who won’t shoulder his own cross and follow behind me can’t be my disciple.” (Luke 14:25-27 The Message)

“Is there anyone here who, planning to build a new house, doesn’t first sit down and figure the cost so you’ll know if you can complete it? If you only get the foundation laid and then run out of money, you’re going to look pretty foolish. Everyone passing by will poke fun at you: ‘He started something he couldn’t finish.’ “Or can you imagine a king going into battle against another king without first deciding whether it is possible with his ten thousand troops to face the twenty thousand troops of the other? And if he decides he can’t, won’t he send an emissary and work out a truce? “Simply put, if you’re not willing to take what is dearest to you, whether plans or people, and kiss it good-bye, you can’t be my disciple.” (Luke 14:28-33 The Message)

No more divided loyalty. Father, we come out of compliance with loyalty to multiple things and with you and come into complete loyalty to you only. Holy Spirit, convict us and teach us how to walk in complete loyalty and honor, to the King of kings.
