Shechem



Choose this day whom you will serve. You cannot if you forgot and plot against the Lord. His works, His love and faithfulness serve to swerve remembrance towards Him.
Our God is unchanging, holy and jealous.  Just like it's written, Joshua tells 'em,  give up false gods and choose.  He compelled them at Shechem.
The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Joseph chose us. You know this.  For His voice has told us.  To follow, serve and obey is to put it away.  Whatever takes favor over the Savior puts us in danger.
Fear The Lord and savor scripture.
God speaks, He moves, and gathered them together; reminded of miracles and protection.
He implores us today, choose Him or walk away. Our ultimatum. Just like He spoke at Shechem.


"Now therefore fear the Lord and serve Him in sincerity and in faithfulness.  
Put away the gods that your fathers served beyond the River and in Egypt, and serve the Lord.  
And if it is evil in your eyes to serve the Lord, choose this day whom you will serve, 
whether the gods your fathers served in the region beyond the River, 
or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you dwell.  
But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord."
- Joshua 24:14-15

Eternal Profits


Like flowers bloom for the stinging bee
Bringing sweet honey;
Invisible songs allure mischief
A means to an end, just money.
Coins impede mere reason.
Blinding importance in effects 
of attention altered; Lord's treason. 
Rather trust provisions will come
for those who follow the Son.
Work for the Kingdom come
cannot be worthless in the eyes 
of the Most High, sovereign King.
He who keeps us.
Loves us.
Unfailing.

        I say to myself, 
           "The Lord is my portion;
            therefore I will wait for him."
       Lamentations 3:24 (NIV)
