Joshua 24:13-15

 

Joshua 24:13-15

 

“I have given you a land for which you did not labor, and cities which you did not build, and you dwell in them; you eat of the vineyards and the olive groves which you did not plant. Now therefore, Fear The LORD, serve Him in Sincerity and in Truth, and put away the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the River and in Egypt. Serve The LORD! And if it seems evil to you to serve The LORD, choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell. But for me and my house, we will serve The LORD!” NKJV

 

The secret and the power of serving GOD is our will. It cannot be that we will do some of what GOD says and shows us, it is all or nothing; Oswald Chambers said, “When GOD gives us a vision of Truth it is never a question of what He will do, but of what we will do. We must exercise our will. We must will to Obey.” JESUS said, “Do not think that I came to destroy The Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to Fulfill!  For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from The Law till all is fulfilled. Whoever therefore breaks one of the least of these Commandments, and teaches men so, shall be called least in The Kingdom of Heaven; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in The Kingdom of Heaven. For I say that unless your righteousness exceeds the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, you will by no means enter The Kingdom of -Heaven.” Matthew 5:17-20

 

“But, he who looks into the Perfect Law of Liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of The Work, this one will be Blessed in what he does.” James 1:25 NKJV

 

Obedience is the key! Seek GOD First!
