January Topic: OBEDIENCE IS GREATER THAN SACRIFICE |
Of all the things I have had to learn over the length of my lifetime - this is the most important. If we don't get this right, the rest is impossible. So let's spend this first month of the year getting our priorities in the correct order. |
1 Kings 18:21
HOW LONG WILL YOU WAVER BETWEEN TWO OPINIONS?
A new word was given to us in the 1990's - a paradigm. That set of values upon which we base all our thoughts and actions. A paradigm shift occurs when those values are changed for whatever reason. In Elijah's day - which really is not so unlike our own, Israel had allowed a foreign paradigm to forge its way into their thinking. Wicked rulers had created a challenge and the people (except 7000!) instead of standing firm had changed into the mould of Jezebel. They were "going along with it!"
The challenge is laid out at your feet today - will you continue to be "conditioned" by the society in which you live or will you be Biblically focused and radical for Jesus?
Elijah brought a watershed into their existence. The Holy Spirit wants to bring one into your life today. How long will you carry on blindly following the unbiblical ways of the society in which you live?
God calls you "OUT". Stop wavering - you know what is right - now be committed to put it right. Better still - GO DO IT!
Father, please forgive me for the many times I go for the soft option. Grant me the backbone and courage to embrace Your Biblical paradigm. AMEN.
