Text: _So letting your sinful nature control your mind leads to death. But letting the Spirit control your mind leads to life and peace…Romans 8:6 NLT Choice is one of the fundamental principles of the Kingdom of God. Your choice can either be right or wrong. Whereas, making right choices leads you to the right destination; making wrong choices leads you to wrong destinations. Whichever one, you must accept responsibility for the choices that you make. Choice is a very powerful instrument as it relates to establishing family life and there are certain fundamental truths we must understand about the power of choice. We live in a world of choices. Whether you are male or female, single or married, widowed or divorced, on a daily basis, life presents before you choices to make. There is power in your choices. You are a creature of choice. God gave us the gift of choice. Just as God will not think for you, the same way God will not choose for you. It is His wish for you to choose life that both you and your seed may live.
We see this clearly in God’s Word, I call heaven and earth 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 (Deuteronomy 30:19). This simply means that God will not choose for you. This principle works in every area even in marriage. You are constantly faced with choices as regards your spouse, children etc., your ability to make the right choices will determine the overall success of your family life. Choices are powerful and they are the gift of God; so, when you make right choices in life, you find out that it will affect every other area of your life. Make the right choice today.
Prayer: Dear Father, I open my ears to hear what is spoken that influences right choices. Help me to decide for a glorious future by my daily choices in Jesus’ Name.
