Choose You This Day Whom Ye Will Serve,

5 Who satisfies your mouth with good things,

So that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.

Isaiah 58:11

11 The LORD will guide you continually,

And satisfy your soul in drought,

And strengthen your bones;

You shall be like a watered garden,

And like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail.

Philippians 4:19

19 And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

And God will truly be there for you and he will give you strength.

He will give you happiness.

And all of your needs and that includes y 2k!

We should serve him because there are no bad after-effects in His service.

You can serve some God’s and the time will come when you will regret it.

But not so when you serve the God almighty.

Every sinner at the end of his life regretted that he had served satan.

But not one person that has served the Lord God Almighty has ever regretted it.

I read once of a fine young church member that had lost his life in the war.

His mother was asked this question.

What was the thing that brings you the most joy when you think about your son?

And she answered, the fact that he loved God, lived a good Christian life.

And was so thoughtful of his father and mother.

When you think of a life like that, there are no regrets at the end of the way, nothing to make you sit and weep because of sin.

We should serve Him because our influence will be greater.

People see you everyday, and your Christian influence as they watch you is a blessed thing.

What is your influence in your home?

Your workplace?

Your friends?

Someday you will be gone, how will your children, your friends, the people in your workplace remember you?

Your influence doesn’t die with you, you know.

We should serve him because the results of such service are better.

If you spend your life in worldly endeavors only, the results will last but a day.

Spend that life in His service and the good results will outlast the stars.

The world may perish but your work will remain.

Give him and his church a life and you will be building with material that will last forever.

John 8:51

51 “most assuredly, I say to you, if anyone keeps my word he shall never see death.”

We should serve Him because the rewards are greater in His service.

There is joy in Jesus that nothing else can give.

There are the memories that you will have in your old age.

The devil has no happy old people.

As you sit down and look back over the gallery of your life, will it be hung with pictures of a sinful life or pictures of a glorious service to God?

Then there is glory at the end of the way.

Instead of being banished from God, He will take you into His glory where you will never shed another tear.

God promises to us all the good in this world and the world to come.

He just asks us to love Him with all our hearts, then He knows we will serve Him.

Won’t you say today I forsake all other God’s and give your life to Him?

And then from this day on you will be able to say as for me and my house were gone to serve the lord!
