MEMORISE: 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
READ: Deuteronomy 30:15-20
- See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil;
- In that I command thee this day to love the LORD thy God, to walk in his ways, and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his judgments, that thou mayest live and multiply: and the LORD thy God shall bless thee in the land whither thou goest to possess it.
- But if thine heart turn away, so that thou wilt not hear, but shalt be drawn away, and worship other gods, and serve them;
- I denounce unto you this day, that ye shall surely perish, and that ye shall not prolong your days upon the land, whither thou passest over Jordan to go to possess it.
- 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:
- 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: that thou mayest dwell in the land which the LORD sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Matthew 24:1-51, Exodus 39-40
MESSAGE:
Decision making is the process of making choices by identifying a problem, gathering information and assessing alternative options. Many young people make decisions in a hurry and this leads to grievous mistakes, whereas these mistakes would have been avoided if only they put in a measure of thoughtfulness before making those decisions.
In today’s Bible reading, Moses told the children of Israel the importance of choosing right and also presented the consequences of wrong choices. God has given us the free will to make decisions but one needs to choose right so as to live a good life here on earth and spend eternity in Heaven. Therefore, you need to be careful about the decisions you make in the area of your spirituality, academics, relationship, career et cetera. This is because they will either make or mar you. The best way to make good decisions is to involve God. Always ask Him to direct you so that you don’t end up making mistakes.
ACTION POINT:
Ask for the grace never to succumb to peer pressure in making decisions.
HYMN 8: Lead Us Heavenly Father
- Lead us, heavenly Father, lead us
o’er the world’s tempestuous sea;
guard us, guide us, keep us, feed us,
for we have no help but Thee;
yet possessing every blessing,
if our God our Father be. - Saviour, breathe forgiveness o’er us:
all our weakness Thou dost know;
Thou didst tread this earth before us,
Thou didst feel its keenest woe;
lone and dreary, faint and weary,
through the desert Thou didst go. - Spirit of our God, descending,
fill our hearts with heavenly joy,
love with every passion blending,
pleasure that can never cloy:
thus provided, pardoned, guided,
nothing can our peace destroy.
