Make Today Great 😉 by the grace of God, as today’s actions do improve or impact tomorrow’s results, and beyond.
Today is the Day to do it.
“(For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, And in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)”
2 Corinthians 6:2
,
We make so many choices every day. Some choices are pretty ordinary and have no significant impact to our “future” direction, like whether we want to write or post commonplace, unexceptional stuff to a chat group or social media.
Making critical choices involve decision-making that necessitate the systematically gathering and evaluating of accurate information in order to make informed decisions or good choices. It entails discarding old filters that had worn-out or lenses that are no longer in focus and look for the correct information, then strategically think through the choices available in order to come to the best possible option given the situation.
Good choices are decisions that do help us to head in the right direction in life.
There are certain choices that affect our future and eternal destiny and it would ultimately be most important for us to choose wisely based on the revelation of our Creator to us.
Our time on planet 🌏 is pivotal for it is while we are alive on earth that we can make a choice that has the greatest consequence for our future destiny – whether we will be in heaven with God or be with the devil and his angels in the lake of fire for all eternity – that’s how crucially significant it is for us.
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.” John 3:16-19
Jesus said:
“Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:”
Matthew 25:41
“And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.”
Matthew 25:46
God tells us in no uncertain terms:
“….the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.”
Revelation 20:12-15
“the same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: and the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name. And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.”
Revelation 14:10-11, 13
The past is past and is over, and you don’t live there anymore.
Learn the lessons through the lenses of what had been the bygones and Let Go to move forward unhindered.
The future is yet to be.
So do appreciate and treasure this very moment as it will move inexorably to be in the past soon, and do take the necessary action now, today. Right action taken today will lead to a better tomorrow.
“This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.” Psalm 118:24
“Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,” Philippians 3:13
It is never too late to make a fresh start with God.
A fresh day is a beautiful new beginning and it is a privilege given to us by our Creator.
With a fresh day, we can choose to have a fresh mindset, fresh start and focus for fresh results, by the grace of God.
We CAN CHANGE the Direction that is leading us to an unwanted destination, because We CAN as GOD gave us the choice.
If you don’t like how things are, change it! You’re not a tree. – Jim Rohn
Thank God for the opportunity to make each day count (not just counting the days) at the beginning of a fresh new day, presented to us by our Creator.
God gave us the free choice to decide and set our direction daily.
May we welcome each new day and seize the day; set the direction right, recalibrate as needed – Coram Deo carpe diem and conquer afresh daily.
Remember, the past is HISTORY and don’t wallow in it any more.
Let’s be grateful to God for today.. We can start again TODAY and not look back – let’s DO IT and there CERTAINLY WILL BE POSITIVE CHANGES.
God gave us the Human DNA to be what we want to be (within the parameters of what a human can do and that’s hugh) – to achieve great things when we put our mind and efforts into it. Consistency is one of the critical success factors.
Wishes all a wonderful and joyous new year.
May God grant us a blessed 2019.
Let’s welcome enthusiastically the potentials and positive changes of this new year; forget “what might have been” which was the last year’s voice. This year is a fresh voice; let’s decide to move ahead from where we are and to do what’s essential, needful and doable, and to reach greater heights.
Each day of 2019 is a gift from God. Today is a New Beginning. Let us embrace our Creator God, have a renewed mind, be a better person and enjoy His faithfulness and blessings in our lives.
“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.”
2 Corinthians 5:17
“For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you. And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.”
Jeremiah 29:11-13
We need to stand up for what is right, confronting abusers and evildoers – for the triumph of good over evil. To stand for just against the unjust.
Doing what is right is not in any way the wrong answer and will lead to better things.
No matter what our beliefs are, we have to be able to understand the truth of the situation. People become too biased and are blind to what is really going . Being able to have right perspective is a skill to acquire.
Do not let someone abuse you, else unrighteousness and evil will not be confronted – we need to do what is right.
“Who will rise up for me against the evildoers? or who will stand up for me against the workers of iniquity?”
Psalms 94:16
We thank God for today, as we have another chance to change our lives for the better.
Our life is our story, may we write well, rewrite and edit as needed, each moment and day for change and improvement.
“Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.”
Proverbs 18:21
