TO SIN OR NOT
Dan. 1:8 But Daniel made up his mind not to defile himself by eating the food and wine given to them by the king. He asked the chief official for permission to eat other things instead.
But Daniel made up his mind. We all must choose whom we will serve and obey. We are constantly choosing to either do what is right in God’s eyes or what is right in our own eyes. Sinning is never a neutral act and neither is obedience. You will be called upon to decide many times today whether or not you are going to live for Christ or for yourself. Sinful choices will haunt you wherever you may be at. The issue is, “Are you determined to let God help you to not sin against Him?” The mindset you have right now will set the course of your day. You will either live in victory or defeat.
Why not make up your mind to do what pleases the Lord? Why not make up your mind to seek Him first and foremost in your life? Why not make up your mind to daily read and meditate on God’s Word? Why not make up your mind to pray often to the Lord and worship Him daily? Phil. 4:8
Why not ask the Lord to set your mind on Him and His truth so that you can avoid the pitfalls of sin today?
