YOUR CHOICES (DEISION) DETERMINES YOUR DESTINY

YOUR CHOICES (DEISION) DETERMINES YOUR DESTINY

There are three things about choices:

1.       You are free to choose

2.       Its not possible for you not to choose

3.       You are not in control of the result of your choices – ie you cannot choose it

You are free to choose:

a.       The quality of your life today is the sum total of the choices you have made sometimes back. Life is made of different time of decision taken. Everyone has to take decision at one time or the other.

Life itself presents options of decision all the times (Deut 30:19, Joshua 24:15, Phil.1:15-18)

b.      Since the above is true: it is impossible not take decision. Taking no decision is decision taken Matt.12:30

c.       You are no longer in control of the result of your decision. Gen 8:22

d.      About decision, big choice takes care of little choices – so sit down and count the cost and evaluate because you take the choice or decision alone – Luke 14:28

Problem of bad choices

The choice of Elimelech was wrong and bad in the sense that he got himself out of the will of God – he decided to take a quick shotcut to moab and never came back

Wrong motives: He was motivated primarily by the physical not the spiritual (Matt 6:33) look at Bethlehem and Moab

Wrong method: operating by sight and not by faith compare the meaning of his name and his decision for moab

Wrong master: he ended up serving the wrong master (Moab) He left the covenant blessing of Israel

Results of bad choices are:

1.       Death

2.       Deprivation

3.       Disappointment

Power of right choices

Ruth among all made the right choice (decision) and her life was transformed. She was delivered from the curse, shame, condemnation and she got a new life

Seven ways of taking right choices

1.       A new determination

2.       A new direction

3.       A new dependence

4.       A new desire

5.       A new devotion

6.       A new dedication

7.       A new destiny

Right choices are like the right investment in the right business which will definitely give good returns. But it is in your hand to take decisions not someone else. http://biggybrand.blogspot.com/
