MAY 8
AS FOR ME AND MY HOUSE

Scripture: Joshua 24:15 “And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.”

     Joshua tells us in our text today that there is a choice that we all have to make. We can either serve the “gods” of this world or the true and living “GOD”. But the choice is ours! We cannot serve both, we must make the choice!
     Joshua could not choose for them, but he could choose for himself and for those of his household. I cannot choose for you today who you will choose to follow. If I could I would choose that you follow the Lord. Will you not make the right choice today?
     I believe Joshua’s decision was based on his knowledge of who God was and what He was able to do! He said, “As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” He knew enough about the Lord and what He had done in the past to know that He could and that He would take care of them.
     I have lived long enough to know that God surely keeps His Word! He has over and over again taken care of the needs of me and my family. I am so thankful to know Him and recommend Him to you today! You’ll never regret the choice you make to follow Jesus! He will never leave you! He will never forsake you! His Word and His promises He will fulfill in your life!
    I know there is a tendency in human nature to put off making choices, but this is one you don’t won’t to procrastinate on. Please don’t put off making that choice to follow the Lord in all that He has for you in this life. He will never disappoint you! He will never discourage you! He will never leave you alone as you walk with Him each day!
