When God tells you to do something, do it regardless of what people might think or say about you. Obey Him without worrying about how you feel at any time that is about or anything. Being a prisoner of Christ is to be chained to him. This means automatically go where He goes, what He says, and do what He does. Is to submit to His will, and allow the Word and the leading of the Holy Spirit to direct your heart and mind ... That we are accountable, volunteers, we are all 'Prisoners' of Christ.
We will perhaps not all to die for Christ physically, but we all must die to ourselves spiritually. Prisoners of Christ know that the message they proclaim is much more important than themselves as messengers. The message takes center stage. The messenger is a canvas on which the message was painted through brokenness and pain, abandonment and tender, and perfect joy of salvation. Prisoners of Jesus are people who are fully devoted to God's call and divest themselves continually in their daily lives in the world, the flesh and the devil. We need God to use us in his will. It is not for us to decide what we need to do is to God alone.
