He states the benefits and >consequences of faithfulness and unfaithfulness. "If it seems evil to >you to serve the Lord, choose for yourselves this day whom you will >serve. . . . But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord" (v. >15). Fortunately, the Israelites accept the challenge and agree to serve >the Lord. >Time to time, the Lord may challenge us through various and >unpredictable ways. When we drift from Him, when we get stale, or cease >growing, the Lord will often bring a circumstance into our lives which >forces us to choose whom we will serve. At those times, we must learn >from the nation of Israel and choose to serve the Lord. > >PRAYER > Because the Lord cares enough about us to challenge us to total >commitment, we praise Him: >Make a joyful shout to the Lord, all you lands! >Serve the Lord with gladness; >Come before His presence with singing. Know that the Lord, He is God; >It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves; >We are His people and the sheep of His pasture. >Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, >And into His courts with praise. >Be thankful to Him, and bless His name. >For the Lord is good; >His mercy is everlasting, >And His truth endures to all generations (Psalm 100:1-5). > > Pray this confession to the Lord as you seek to keep your life free >from sin: >Search me, O God, and know my heart; >Try me, and know my anxieties; >And see if there is any wicked way in me, And lead me in the way >everlasting >(Psalm 139:23-24). > > Confess any sins that the Holy Spirit brings to your mind. Now pause >to pray this affirmation to the Lord: >They said, "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you >and your household" (Acts 16:31). > > As you make your requests known to the Lord, pray for: > greater love for other Christians, > missions in Europe and Asia, > your activities for the day. > Finally, offer this prayer to the Lord: >Be of good courage, >And He shall strengthen your heart, >All you who hope in the Lord (Psalm 31:24). > > >Quiet Walk is published by Walk Thru the Bible Ministries, Inc. in >Atlanta, GA.
