Pick A Side

If it is unacceptable in your sight 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 live; but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.
Joshua 24:15 AMP

I just love who GOD is! God is the ultimate winner.  He never fails (Zephaniah 2:5). His love never fails (1 Corinthian 13:8). His word never fails (Joshua 21:45, Isaiah 55:11). When our lives are submitted to and aligned with God we simply cannot fail (Psalm 18:31-32). 

Romans 8:31, “What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?”

The world offers many options that seek the subscription of our hearts. There is much competition for the way we spend our time, where we place our thoughts, and how we spend our money. These options are not presented as if they are choices that will draw us away from God. They are not advertised as opportunities to pick an option that opposes God. But the enemy is a finesser (Genesis 3). Its job is to make unGodly options look, sound, and feel easier, better, and more beneficial than what God has for you (Matthew 4:1-11). The goal is to convince you that these options don't interfere with your standing with God. But the responsibility is upon us to choose the way of God, according to His word, with the help of the Holy Spirit.
It is always wise to reconcile all your dealings with the infallible word of God. Seek God first and use your discernment in every decision that you make (Proverbs 2:2-5, Matthew 6:33). Seek the path of love over fear, faith over reason, His truth over your feelings.
What a mighty and unconquerable God we serve. Realize that the character of God is love, peace, and productivity. You will know who and what is a Godly pursuit by its alignment with God’s word and the fruit it produces. If the conversation doesn’t match the manifestation you have got to prune to protect your standing with God. (John 15:2)
If you want to always be in the winning position, pick the side of God in every matter of your life. When God is with us, nothing that comes against us can prevail (Isaiah 54:17). Our God is awesomely undefeated. No matter what we are faced with, His grace is sufficient for us and His power is made perfect in our weakness. (2 Corinthians 12:9). Let's pick the always victorious side of God for every matter of our lives.

Be Blessed!
