The Power Of Decision

By
Some people are afraid to make decisions because they are afraid they will make the wrong ones. But it is better to make a wrong decision than not make any decision at all. This is because not making a decision is a decision. If you refuse to decide to succeed, you have consciously or un-consciously decided to fail. When you refuse to decide, your life is like a wheelbarrow, you only move as far as other people push you. If you refuse to lay the options for yourself and make your decision, you will have to live with the remaining option that is left after other people have made their choice.

 God designed life to respond only to decisions. Your life will only progress based on the decisions you have made. The reality of your life today is based on the decision you made yesterday. Many lives are not moving forward or not moving at the rate at which they should move because the people who own them have not gathered the courage to make the necessary decisions they need to make to move their lives forward.

From the time you make up your mind, it’s only a matter of time; life will deliver to you what you have demanded. Don’t settle for mediocrity, excellence is ahead of you. Don’t settle for something less than the best, and the best is yet to come. Make up your mind to move from where you are to where God wants you to be. Your decisions will determine your destiny, and your destiny is great.

When you make decisions, decisions also turn around to make you and each decision you make determines how far you will go in life. Don’t mortgage your life to indecision or leave it to the devil to decide. Make a choice today.

I remember the story of a soldier during the civil war in America. He was scared and could not decide which camp to stay in. He got the top uniform of one camp and the trouser of the other side and put them on. So whichever side he found himself, he would say ‘I’m on your side.’ But the day they saw him, soldiers of both sides saw him at the same time, one side saw only the top and the other side saw only the trouser, so the two sides fired him at ones. This was a bad way to die and either camp couldn’t claim his body.

Lack of decision is very dangerous to your progress in life. Many have ended like this soldier who thought it was safer to sit on the fence. Do not sit on the fence, stand for something and be committed to it; eventually you will reap the fruits of your labour.

THEME: RETREAT TO REFRESH READ: Matt. 11:25-30 When some musicians want to release great songs, they retreat to secluded places where they can reflect, meditate and create. Some choose places overlooking the vast oceans, some choose where there are waterfalls, and some choose places with thick forestations.  As they observe the beauty of nature, the swift moves and songs of the soaring birds, the colourful flowering vegetations, the serene beaches and the unending waves of the nearby waters, they capture inspiration that helps them develop the hit songs they have been longing for. I met one of the world’s renowned musicians in Atlanta, USA a few years ago where journalist surrounded him and were asking what he had come to do and why his beards had grown so much. He said that his last album did not perform well enough and he was incubating another one he wanted to release that would perform better. He said that he needed to pull away from the Noise of New York and California ...

A NEW MONTH OF DIVINE ANNOUNCEMENT

By
But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John. Luke 1:13 The Bible is replete of records on how God announced some events before they finally happened. Because you made it into the new Month, God will specially announce you in Jesus name.  Whenever God want to do something unusual, He first of all announce it, for instance, when He wanted to delivered the children of Israelite from the hand of the philistine whom He has delivered them to, He sent an angel to break the new to the parent of the deliverer - Samson. Judges 13.  When God wanted to turn the hearts of men back to Himself, He sent angel Gabriel to announced the birth of John the Baptist to his father, Zacharias. Also when God was fully ready for the redemption of man, He first announced it to the one whose body His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ will pass through to the earth. Luke 1:26-38. That was the...

Nothing To Do, Only Believe By Joseph Prince

By
Daily Grace Inspirations Thursday 11th August 2016 …“What shall we do, that we may work the works of God?” Jesus answered and said to them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent.” - John 6:28–29 When I was a young Christian, I attended a seminar on what we must do to “work the works of God”. I was told that we had to pray more, fast more, know our enemy and so on. I came away from the seminar confused. Then one day, I found the same question in the Bible. But the answer was very different! In the Gospel of John, we find Jesus being asked the same question by the multitude who had been awed by His miracles—“What shall we do, that we may work the works of God?” The people had seen Jesus healing the sick, and feeding 5,000 men with only five loaves and two fish. Notice how Jesus answered them: “This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent.” My friend, the greatest doing is believing—believing in Jesus the sent one, who has done it all ...
