The Profit of Making
The Right Decision
7 February 2020
SCRIPTURE: Brethren, I
count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those
things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,
I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ
Jesus. Philippians 3:13-14
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
The road you choose determines the place you end.
TODAY’S WORD: It is
important to know that nothing moves forward without a choice. If you wait for
chance, the only result you would have is a fall. Things may fall by chance but
nothing rises without a choice.
Now, let us look at
the profits of decision:
1. Decision determines
destination. The road you choose determines the place you end. Your choices
determine your chances (Luke 15:11-32).
2. Decision determines
distinction. To take a stand is to stand out. David took a stand, and he stood
out (1 Samuel 17:32).
3. Decision brings
deliverance (Luke 15:17-32).
4. Decision cures
frustration. There are choices you make that deliver you from suffering. The
choice of Peter to give his ship to Jesus delivered him from frustration (Luke
5:1-6).
5. Decision undergirds
destiny. Where you are today is a product of the choices you made yesterday and
where you will be tomorrow will be determined by the choices you are making
today (Luke 15:11-32).
The question is: what
kinds of decision are critical for destiny? They are:
a. The decision to be
everything God wants you to be in this life. This is vowing that whether the
devil likes it or not you must be everything God wants you to be in this life
(Philippians 3:12-13).
b. The decision to
know what it takes to be everything God wants you to be in life (Philippians
3:10).
c. The decision to do
what it takes to be who God wants you to be in life (Philippians 3:14).
My counsel is, make a
quality decision in order to fulfil quality destiny.
REMEMBER THIS: The
road you choose determines the place you end.
ASSIGNMENT(S):
1. Write down your
visions in the area of your life’s assignment; review them from time to time
and be determined to see their manifestation.
2. Fight everything
trying to resist your purpose on earth at the place of prayer.
3. Make demands on God
for the grace to fulfil your purpose in life.
