Life is a series of choices. The choices we make today determine our tomorrow. Everyone wants to make wise choices. However, the result is not necessarily the case. Why are you making the wrong choice? What should a Christian choose?
1. Words that can be kept (verses 11-14)
People say it's hard to live by the word. It comes from the experience of his own weakness and failure. These words make us think about how aggressive and pessimistic the influence we get from the people around us and the people we live in. But with this mindset, you cannot obey any word. Christians must have an attitude of recognizing that the Word is a command that we absolutely need, and that we must and can keep. Of course, this is impossible in our capacity. But God is not asking us to do something impossible. The God who loved Jehovah and commanded him to keep his word will surely give him the ability to do it. Therefore, we must have positive and positive faith that obedience to the Word can also be done through Him who strengthens us, and we must pray for this.
2. Grace that can be given (verse 16)
No matter how good it is, it has nothing to do with me if the person who has it does not have the ability or heart to share it. But God can make all things possible. He wants us to be gracious and to give us peace. He is the One who can give us the land and bless us from it. What we don't get is because we didn't ask for it. Because I didn't choose. God is the provider. You are the organizer. Trust that God. Do not be shaken by doubt like a leaf in the wind. Get something good. Choose the right path. The Lord wants us to ask and He grants our wishes.
3. A life to choose from (verses 19-20)
God gave man free will and allowed him to choose the various issues in life. We are faced with a variety of choices, such as choosing a spouse on the path of life, choosing a job, and standing on the path to happiness. The important thing is which of them is the way to really save lives. Among the paths of life and death, blessings and curses, the one we must choose is the path of life. If we choose life, God gives us life. Because God is life. In other words, the way of life is to love the Lord, to listen to His voice, and to lean on Him and hold on to Him.
What road are we on? God has given us the will and power to choose life. We must be alert so that we do not enter the evil way, the way of the arrogant, and the way of sinners with that power. Remember that the choices we make today can change our lives tomorrow.
<Prayer>
1. Help me to choose the Word, grace, and life with the wisdom you give me!
2. Let the early morning prayer meeting be revitalized and the flames of intercession may be kindled!
3. Heal the weak patients and lead them to the place of worship!
