CHOICES!
Deuteronomy 30:15-18 – Devotional
Deuteronomy 30:15-18
“See, I set before you today life and prosperity, death and destruction. For I command you today to love the Lord your God, to walk in obedience to him, and to keep his commands, decrees and laws; then you will live and increase, and the Lord your God will bless you in the land you are entering to possess.
But if your heart turns away and you are not obedient, and if you are drawn away to bow down to other gods and worship them, I declare to you this day that you will certainly be destroyed. You will not live long in the land you are crossing the Jordan to enter and possess.”
Aren’t you glad we do not live in the day when people worshipped idols? Back then they made idols of gold, wood, or stone to worship. These “gods” became so important to the people that their entire lives revolved around worshipping something they themselves had made. It makes you wonder how they could have been so foolish.
Before we get carried away with the condemnation of people in past ages, we need to take a long look at our own day and age. We live in such a hedonistic society that most people give themselves over to anything that will give pleasure. We have erected modern day gods of the “stuff” of life. We bow at the shrine of everything that is new and modern because it will make us feel good.
Too many Christians have fallen into this same kind of tragic worship. Moses confronted the Israelites with a loud call to love the Lord and walk in obedience to His written word. We need to make the choice to serve the Lord our God with all our heart, with all our soul, and with all our mind.
Be sure to make the right choice!
Blessings dear hearts! Walk with God today and be a blessing!
