If we are going to be used by God, it is going to cost us something to do

ministry.

- Matthew 16:24, “Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone desires to

come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow

Me.

- It is going to be a sacrifice, something you have to give up.
