In Luke 9:23, Jesus said to take up our cross daily meaning to claim the blessings that come from the finished work of Christ on the Cross.
1. We have the blessing of liberty (freedom) - our curses are removed (cancelled, released) : Gal 3:13, 1 Pet 2:24, John 8:36
2. We have the blessing of love - our conflicts are resolved (reconciliation) : Col 1:20, Eph 2:14-16, 1 John 3:16, Rom 5:8, John 15:13, 2 Cor 5:14-15, Luke 7:47
3. We have the blessing of life - creation is restored (our old nature replaced with the new nature) : John 6:54, Gal 2:20, 1 Cor 15:45-49
