Joshua 24:15 – And if it seems evil to you to serve the Lord, choose for yourselves this day whom you will server…. But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.
We are all familiar with how and why Satan became who and what he is now. He wanted to be like God and to be in God’s position. He wanted to be worshipped and reverenced. He still does.
Well, Satan can and is being worshipped. But he can never be like God or be in God’s position. Why? Because Satan is one of God’s creations. He is NOT the Creator and has no power to be, at least not like our Father can and did. Satan “creates” lies, he kills, steals and destroys. Satan takes and takes and is selfish. He takes our literal lives, our peace and our joy. He destroys our morals and even our sanity. He deceives us to take away our opportunity to choose.
God, on the other hand, loves, is Truth, gives life and He blesses. God is our peace, our joy, our everything. God gives and does so abundantly. He gave His all to the point that even His Son gave up His deity for every single human in the past, present and future. Our Father and Creator gave us the gift of choice at creation. He wants us to want Him as much as He wants us.
So which one is the better choice for you? Who do you choose to love and live for? Who deserves your allegiance? If no choice is specifically made, the choice is made by default and Satan wins. Satan gets you.
Think about it. Tomorrow is not promised. Neither is the next minute. Make your decision. You only have this moment. Choose- today.
Father, I thank you that You chose and created me to worship you. No one else deserves my praise and adoration. I choose you yesterday, today and forever.
