Today : It’s Your Choice!
TODAY’S VERSE
“Choose today whom you will serve—but as for me and my family, we will serve the LORD.” Joshua 24:15 (NLT)
TODAY’S MESSAGE
Choices. Everyday we are called upon to make choices. Some insignificant, some with heavy consequences. There are some choices in life that lead us down certain paths. Marriage, vocation and other major choices all have ramifications on our future. But it is the everyday choices that determine how we live out the marriage, vocation or our other major choices. That is why, what you chose today is so important. You may have started down a path and strayed off. Today you can choose to turn around. You may have habitual choices that have been negative. Today you can choose to go another direction. You have the power to choose. You can choose to love. Likewise, happiness is a choice. God is constantly calling out to us, “Choose me.” God and our choice, what a powerful combination. Choose today whom you will serve; for not to choose, is to choose already.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Dear God, please help me. I admit I haven’t always chosen wisely. Give me wisdom, discernment and self discipline to make the right choices today. Most of all today, Dear Lord, I choose You. I choose to love You and live for You. In Jesus’ name.
AMEN
TODAY’S AFFIRMATION & MEDITATION
Today, I have a choice!
Visualize yourself at a fork in the road. It is obvious that the one leads to your own self will, worldly pleasures and alienation from God. The other is a humble road, but it is a road of peace, joy and Godliness. You can feel the pull in both directions, but today you have a choice and you choose God’s way.
