Remembering Those That Went All In

Today across America it is a holiday where we remember those that fought for our freedom. Some came home, some perished on the battlefield, and some struggle to come home even though they are here with us. One thing is true about them all. They went all in. They gave everything for us so that we might have a chance at Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness, that we might have our freedom. Today we want to remember those people.

WE have a choice every day with God. We can choose to be all in, or not. We can choose to take a casual attitude towards our relationship with God, or we can choose to chase Him with out whole heart.

Psalms 42:1 As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God.

David chased after God like the water we drink. If we choose to casually consider drinking in the living water that God offers to us, then we will miss the fullness of the blessing. The same is true in all we do, whether it is relationship, work, or play. We do all unto God.

Colossians 3:16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.

Today, in everything in your life, do all as unto God, just as those brave warriors gave their all for us.

Prayer
Father, we praise and exalt You. Thank You for this day. Please bless those that went to defend our freedoms, and their loved ones. Please forgive our iniquities. Please send us today healing, deliverance, and abundant provision. In Jesus’ (Yeshua’s) name.
