" And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, CHOOSE YOU THIS DAY WHOM YE WILL SERVE; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but AS FOR ME AND MY HOUSE, WE WILL SERVE THE LORD."
Joshua was pretty plain spoken in his declaration! Everyday when I rise, I have the choice to listen to doubt and fear from the enemy, or I can listen to PEACE and ASSURANCE from my HEAVENLY FATHER!
Joshua reminded the children of Israel that the gods of their fathers had let them down. The gods of the Amorites were temporary. But JEHOVAH, the GOD of ISRAEL, has never and will never experience defeat!
Today I CHOOSE not to listen to the.............
Bad prognosis from a doctor,
Bills that are overdue,
Sales goals that are not being met,
Deadlines that are creeping up,
Or any number of other things that we term as "bad news" in our vernacular.
Life is full of choices. We make some "good" and some "not so good"! The
outcome we seek should not be determined by the surroundings in which we currently find ourselves. Purpose yourself to achieve and overcome. And "CHOOSE" to listen to the GOD of HOPE and PROMISE!
