I CHOOSE TO WORSHIP ;
MY NEW YEAR REVELUTION
WRITTEN BY REV. HOWARD LEWIS JR. ý12/ý12/ý28
JOSHUA 24:15 "AND IF THE EVIL IN YOUR EYES TO SERVE THE LORD, CHOOSE THIS DAY WHOM YOU WILL SERVE, WEATHER THE GODS OF YOUR FATHERS SERVED IN THE REGION BEYOUND THE RIVER, OR THE GODS OF THE AMORITES IN WHOSE LAND YOU DWELL, BUT AS FOR ME AND MY HOUSE WE WILL SERVE THE LORD. "
WITH SO MANY THINGS, RELIGIONS, AND LIFE CIRCUMSTANCES TO CHOOSE FROM IT BEHOOVES US EACH YEAR TO SET A NEW YEARS REVELUTION. WE MAKE PROMISE TO LOSE WEIGHT, TO TREAT OTHERS BETTER OR TO HANDLE OUR FINANCES IN A MORE STABLE MANNER. SO MANY OF US EVEN CHOOSE TO MAKE PROMISE TO GOD OF HOW WE WILL COMIT TO BEING MORE HOLY. ONLY TO BREAK OUR PROMISE A MEER WEEK DOWN THE ROAD. OUR POWER TO CHOOSE SOMETIMES REMOVES us FROM THE PROTECTION OF GOD, ALLOWING THE DEVIL TO SHIFT US LIKE WHEAT.
THE POWER WE HAVE TO CHOOSE IN LIFE IS SO POWERFUL THAT IT CAUSES HAVOC, MISERY AND PAIN TO MANY. FOR WE DON'T ALWAYS CHOOSE OUR WORDS OR WAY WISELY. ACTING WITHOUT THINKING CAN BE VERY MISLEADING. THEN THEIR ARE THOSE WHO COUNT UP THE COST AND ANALIZE EVERYTHING THEY DO CAUSING LIFE TO GO MORE SMOOTHLY AND IN ODER. CHOSING THERE WORDS, CARS, HOMES, AND RELIGION VERY CAREFULLY. YES, RELIGION. BECAUSE OF OUR FREEDOM TO CHOOSE, WE CAN EVEN CHOSE IF WE WANT TO SERVE GOD OR NOT. BUT BE CAREFUL HOW YOU CHOOSE, FOR YOUR CHOICE MAY COST YOU YOUR LIFE.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT CHOICE YOU HAVE MADE IF ANY FOR THIS YEAR OF 2013, BUT I CHOOSE TO WORSHIP CHRIST. DEATH IS ALL AROUND, PEOPLE ARE DIEING EVRYDAY. THE DEVIL IS SENDING PEOPLE IN SCHOOLS, CHURCHES, PLACES OF EMPLOYMENT, MISSIONS. AND ANYWHERE ELSE HE CAN TO DISTROY YOU AND I.
BUT THE BIBLE SAYS LET THE DEAD BURY THE DEAD. I CHOOSE TO SERVE GOD. EARTHQUAKES, TARNADOES, AND HURRICANES HAVE FILLED THIS OLD LAND , BUT I CHOOSE TO WORSHIP CHRIST. WARS AND ROMORS OF WARS, FATHER AGAINST SON, MOTHER AGAINST DAUGHTER, DIEASES ARE CLIAMING YOUNG AND OLD...BUT I CHOOSE TO WORSHIP CHRIST. UNEMPLOYMENT, HUNGER, AND HOMLESSNESS HAS FOUND IT'S WAY TO OUR FRONT DOORS, BUT I CHOOSE TO SERVE CHRIST. BUDDISM, JUDASIM, ISLAM, AND ATHEIST HAVE PULL SO MANY OF GOD'S PEOPLE INTO CULTANISTIC RELIGON, BRINGING THEM INTO CAPTIVITY AND THE WAY OF THE DEVIL. BUT I CHOSE TO SERVE THE LORD.
YES. MY NEW YEAR REVELUTION IS TO SERVE GOD ALMIGHTY, NO MATTER WHAT THEY CALL YOU AND TOLD YOU ABOUT ME. I'M GONNA SERVE CHRIST NO MATTER WHO THE DEVIL USES TO COME AGAINST ME. THE DEVIL WANTS TO STOP GODS' PROGRAM, HE WANTS TO TEAR DOWN WHAT THE CHIEF CONER STONE HAS BUILT UP. WHENEVER GOD IS MOVING AND PROGRESS IS BEING MADE, THAT OLD DEVIL GETS MAD. THE ONE THING THAT BOGGLES MY MIND IS HOW WE AS SO CALL CHRISTIANS ALLOW SATAN TO USE US. FIRST HE FINDS ONE THAT IS NOT AS STRONG AS HE OR SHE THINKS THEY ARE. THEN TELLS HE OR SHE DON'T TRUST BRO. OR SISTER PINE TREE , AND IN THERE NEED TO FIT IN THEY SIDE WITH THE ENEMY. DOING, SAYING, AND SPREADING THE SAME LIES AS THEIR MESSENGER BECAUSE THEY ARE TO WEAK TO STAND ALONE FOR CHRIST.
YOU NEED TO TELL OLD SATAN THAT YOU MAY THINK YOU HURT ME BUT IT WAS FOR MY GOOD. WHATEVER HAPPEN IN 2012 WAS FOR YOUR GOOD. BECAUSE YOU ARE MORE THEN A CONQURER, TO HIM THAT LOVES YOU. YOU ARE THE HEAD AND NOT THE TAIL. YOU ARE ABOVE AND NOT BENEATH. YOU ARE A CHILD OF THE KING. YOU ARE A PRINCE AND A PRINCESS AND A AIR TO THE THRONE OF THE MOST HIGH GOD. CHOOSE YE THIS DAY WHOM YOU WILL SERVE AND WATCH AND SEE IF GOD WANT POUR YOU OUT A BLESSING YOU WANT HAVE ROOM TO RECIEVE. BUT AS FOR ME AND MY HOUSE WE WILL SERVE THE LORD.
YES , I CHOOSE TO WORSHIP THROUGH DEPRESSION, THROUGH THE LOST OF A LOVE ONE. MY HUSBAND MAY LEAVE, MY WIFE MAY LEAVE, MY CHILD MAY BE INCARSERATED. A LOVE ONE MAY BE ENSLAVED BY DRUGS AND ACLCOHOL, BUT I CHOOSE TO WORSHIP HIM!!! YES, I KNOW YOU TALKING ABOUT ME. A CHILD OF GOD , CHRISTIANS, TURING ONE AGAINST ANOTHER... BUT AS FOR ME AND MY HOUSE WE WILL SERVE THE LORD.
I CHOOSE TO WORSHIP HIM.
I CHOOSE TO GIVE; LUKE 6; 38- GIVE AND IT SHALL BE GIVEN TO YOU, PRESS DOWN SHAKEN TOGETHER AND RUNNING OVER.
I CHOOSE TO BLESS HIM: PSALM 34;4 -I SHALL BLESS THE LORD AT ALL TIMES AND HIS PRASIES SHALL CONTINUE TO BE IN MY MOUTH.
