Face To The Wind

It is easier to travel down the open road with the wind at our backs. Sometimes as children of the King we have the opportunity to take a stand. That can mean we have to face into the winds of life. That takes the willingness to resist going with the flow, the willingness to stand up for what we say we believe. There was one person in scripture that spoke to this directly.

Joshua 24:15 And if it seem evil unto you to serve Yahuah (Lord), choose you this day whom you will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land he dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve Yahuah (Lord).

Often I have heard the latter part of this verse. But it is connected to the first part. It is important that we stop and think about the fact that Joshua was speaking to the religious learns and the religious people of the day. That is worth thinking about, right?

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You are our King. Your kingdom is our true home. Send us today Your overwhelming provision. Forgive us for our sin. Heal us. Deliver us. We need You now. We ask all these things in Yeshua’s (Jesus’) name. Amen.
