As we enter this second month of the year let us not forget those important decisions that we made to God, Jesus and Holy Spirit as well as ourselves last month. Quality decisions are so important to a God centred life.
Quality decisions are determinations of the will that are made with God's Help and our own ability to stay fixed on goals that we value.
We see an example of this in Moses' life as recorded in the New Testament.
Hebrews 11:24-25 - By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter; 25Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God than to enjoy the passing pleasures of sin, Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season.
- The word "choosing" in verse 25 is the Greek word HAIREOMAI which carries the meaning of taking for oneself or preferring.
- We as believers prefer to take the things of God rather than the world's attractions.
- Our decisions should be made based on what God prefers as outlined in His Word.
- We prefer to make decisions in line with His Word. As we do, we have the confidence that we will accomplish His will.
- These important decisions lead us to our divine destiny in God.
- While we make these decisions, led by the Holy Spirit, it is important that we understand that God's Word is a light onto our path. Therefore as we follow His Word it will lead us no doubt to our divine destiny in God.
- Ultimately the decision is ours to make. Therefore we must choose to follow His Word.
As with every month, say the following with great confidence in our God... “I’m believing to be at the Right Place, at the Right Time saying the Right Thing and the right thing to say is the Gospel of Jesus Christ.”
