Make a statement of faith today

Good Friday morning, my friends.

Having faith is all about making a choice.  We either choose to believe in God and His goodness or we don't.  We choose to follow Jesus Christ or we don't.  And we have to make this choice every day.  Sometimes every hour.  Use this prayer as your personal statement of faith today.

Amazing grace and eternal peace to you,
Bruce


Father, the philosophies, trends, and mind-set of the world stands in great contrast to the gospel of Jesus Christ.  Your Word tells us that those who are not for You are against You.  

We can't walk on both sides of the fence so we are faced with a choice we must make; the same kind of choice Joshua gave to the Israelites thousands of years ago.  We must choose whether to follow after the gods of this world and forsake You or we must forsake the world and devote ourselves to You.  

Father, I choose to follow after You; You who reconciled me to Yourself through Jesus.  You have proven Yourself trustworthy for Your promises are true.  You provide the power and presence of Your Holy Spirit to lead me and direct my every path.  Your Word illumines my every thought.  

I choose You today, exclusively and eternally!  Amen.
