Life or Death...

Duet. 30:19, 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 they seed may live:

I suppose I am still on the choices that we make in our lives, it is so important
that we know what our options are as well as what comes with those options…

In today’s society we don’t hear much about blessings or cursing’s, unless you attend a church and even then in my opinion not much teaching on the depths of
how our choices can lead to blessings or cursing’s. I hear people say be blessed
and then talk about the person in an ungodly manner as they leave, so in essence you have told the person to be blessed but you have spoken curses…

Blessings as well as curses come in my forms, and we have power over some of those blessings and curses…they are called choices. God even took the verse further
by telling us to choose “life”, make choices that bring about life and there you will find blessings as well. Foolishly making choices can bring about death and curses.

Now lets take this a little deeper, God also stated choose life so that you and “your
seed”, may live. Believe it or not the choices that you make today can and does affect
your children and their children unto 3rd and 4th generations, so if you don’t want to
consider the choices you make for you sake, think of the seed that you produce, is the legacy that you want to leave be that of curses or blessings. Life or death?

God Bless

Choices...

Pro 14:12, There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof [ are] the ways of death.

I wonder how many people make choices before they consider the consequences, not many. I have been guilty of this myself, jump into a
decision before I truly considered what may result from that decision.

I have been listening more and reacting less….reason , I have no sympathy for some people these days. I have no reason to. When someone has been given sound and sane direction and they choose the
direction that results in negative results, yet they have been forewarned,
some have even tried the same things and get the same negative results
but will still make the same decision.

I should say that I no longer have sympathy for some, I have for others, there are those that are trying to make the right decisions and they still
feel like life is passing them by or that God has forgotten them, he hasn’t. My heart goes out for those who have not had the benefit of wise counsel, those who have no one to help them see all the consequences of a decision or action. Those yes they have my sympathy, to them they have my ear.

To those who keep making the same decisions and getting the same results, they bible calls you proud. You are puffed up in your own eyes and make yourself more important than you are, it is also called foolishness, so instead trying to find someone to bail you out, think of what the decision will cost you, it may seem like the right way but the end will equal death…
