We should be thankful that we have this incredible freedom of choice. The positive Word of God has much to say about our ability to choose, and I want to share in this chapter the tremendous power available to us specifically to make choices relative to our lives. We have the freedom as an individual to determine where our life is going and how we can make it productive for God's glory. I am going to share seven major scripture verses to give you a foundation of truth on this subject. He chose to be mistreated along with the people of God rather than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a short time.
Many choices involve the element of faith.
Sometimes we make choices when we are not totally sure where they are going to lead us or just what the end result is going to be. So often the element of faith is present in exercising our freedom of choice. Perhaps the choices we have to make have some similarity with that made by Moses. It is my experience that frequently we have to make a choice whether to follow the principles of the God we worship or whether to follow the principles of the world in which we live. We may not yet see the end result of following God's principles, but by faith we know they can only produce good for us.
