CHOOSE YOU THIS DAY

 I call heaven to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live: That  thou mayest love the Lord thy God, and that thou mayest obey his voice, and that thou mayest cleave unto him: for he is thy life, and the length of thy days … (Deuteronomy 30: 19- 20b)

We have often been told that man has a will. It is that will in us all that makes us show resistance when we are being forced to do a thing. However what forms as a guide to our resistance is the knowledge that we have about a thing or issue we want or need to decide upon. Every human being is wired in life to make choices. Your action or inaction in life is a choice.

 
For instance, we know that God will bless the work of our hands. But if you choose to lazy about for the day and not accomplish anything; you have indirectly chosen to fail. The fact that you have a desire to be great is immaterial if you insist that you will not make an effort. If you like base your inaction on the fact that God said the expectation of the righteous shall not be cut off. I tell you that if that is your reasoning, rest assured that you have with your own hands cut of the expectation. God is not a magician and he will not start being a magician in your time.
