January 4, 2024 - As the book bearing his name comes to a close, we find that Joshua “waxed old and stricken in age” (Joshua 23:1). He called the people together and gave his farewell address to them. We read the declaration he made in Joshua 24:15 when he said, “choose ye this day whom ye will serve... but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.”
As we stand here at the beginning of a new year, that seems an appropriate challenge for each of us. We must choose whether we are going to serve the Lord or we are going to serve the devil. Will Jesus Christ be Lord and Master of our lives in 2024 or will he not? I have said this and written this many times, but it is ever true that if Jesus Christ is not Lord of ALL of your life, He is not Lord AT ALL in your life.
I would like to encourage you to make Jesus Christ the Lord of ALL of your life in 2024. This coming Sunday is the first Lord’s Day in 2024. Make your plans to meet the Lord at His house for worship. Resolve that meeting the Lord at His House for Worship will be a part of your activities not just this coming Sunday, but EVERY Lord’s Day throughout the year. Choose to serve the Lord!
It’s something to think about... tbp
