I Choose...

Praise God we are free, who have accepted the finish work of Jesus Christ.

We have been set free from the bondage of sin.

Romans 6:14 "For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under law, but under grace."

It is not that the law is bad, for it makes us aware that we are unrighteous and in need of the savior.

Praise God for Jesus Christ, who was sent to save us from sin and it's consequences.

We are no longer slaves to sin, but slaves to righteousness.

We can now freely choose to obey God and do what is right.

We can freely choose to say yes to God's will and not our own selfish desires that are about pleasing ourselves.

If we do not obey God, it is because we have chosen not to.

We have operating in us, the Holy Spirit that will lead us in the right way,

but first we must choose to be lead.

We have become so accustom to our own way, that it can be difficult to go another,

but we have the free will to choose rather we think our way is best or God's.

Praise God, we are able to choose.

We are able to choose to walk according to the spirit in us,

or continue to walk in agreement with our flesh.

The new spirit will tug us in one direction, while the flesh will try and pull us in another.

Praise God that now we have the power within us to resist the flesh and to be lead by the spirit,

that is, if we choose.
