WHATEVER YOU ARE TODAY IS PRIMARILY THE RESULTS OF WHAT YOU CHOSE YESTERDAY
JACOB DID NOT STEAL THE BLESSING OF ESAU. ESAU SOLD THE BLESSING YEARS BEFORE
LIFE IS ONLY MADE UP OF TWO OPTIONS: UP OR DOWN, FORWARD OR BACKWARD, RIGHT OR WRONG, BLESSINGS OR CURSES
- Excerpt from Pastor E. A. Adeboye on "THE POWER OF CHOICE" FOR WHOM THE HEAVENS OPEN - Part 57 RCCG Online Sunday Service || 27th October 2024
We want to talk about, "The Power of Choice." The Power of Choice, why? Because life is all about choices and the corresponding repercussions of choices. Whatever you are today is primarily the results of what you chose yesterday. Whatever you are today is because of the choices you made yesterday. Church Gist. For example, if a student is very good in the secondary school in Physics, Chemistry and Biology, depending on the choice of that pupil, he could end up a Medical Doctor, he could end up an Engineer. He can decide which kind of Engineer: Mechanical, Civil, etc. or he could end up a very good teacher, can even become a professor, professor of Physics, Chemistry or Biology etc. Even if he chose to do Medicine, he could still end up a Dentist or another section of Medicine.
Whatever you are today is as a result of the choices you made yesterday. For example, in Genesis 25:29-34, Esau was asked to make a choice between food and his inheritance based on him being the firstborn. He chose food. When the time came for blessings in Genesis 27:1-37, because he had already sold his birthright, the one to whom he sold the birthright is the one who got the blessing. Church Gist. So many at times we hear people say that Jacob stole the blessing of Esau, no, he didn't steal. Esau sold the blessing years before. It is very important for us to know what we chose yesterday is what made us what we are today and whatever we choose today will determine what we will become tomorrow.
Now it will interest you to know that basically you have only two options in life. Every choice is between only two options: light and darkness. Those are the two options. As a matter of fact, if you see a big computer working, you see the whole thing blinking, blinking, blinking and what's happening is that the computer is just choosing between two things: light on, light off, light on, light off, light on. That's what the twinkling is about. Church Gist. Life is only made up of two options: only two, up or down, forward or backward, right or wrong, blessings or curses. "Oh no, what do you mean by backward or forward? What if I decide to stand still?" The moment you say you choose to stand still, it means you have chosen to go backwards. "How can that be? I can stay on one spot." No! If a child is in form two this year and he is in form two again next year, he has already gone backward. You mean what? You say, "How come?" His colleagues, his classmates had already moved on to form three and his juniors in form one had caught up with him? You can't stand still. Church Gist. A choice to say, I stand still is a choice to say I want to go backward. It's either forward or backward.
It's either a choice between obedience and disobedience. Only two, only two. Church Gist. The entire world, the entire life, is always between two choices: sickness or health, joy or sorrow, success or failure, always two, always two. Isaiah 1:19.
