Romans 6:16 Do you not know that to whom you present yourselves slaves to obey, you are that one’s slaves whom you obey, whether of sin leading to death, or of obedience leading to Righteousness?

 

According to God’s Word in the 6th Chapter of Romans, we are all slaves to whom we obey. If we obey Satan and sin, we are slaves to Satan and sin. On the other hand, if we obey God and Righteousness we are slaves to God and Righteousness.

 

The question is, To whom are you a slave?

 

You can choose the answer to that question. No; you MUST choose the answer to that question. God gives every person the free will to choose whom they shall serve and be a slave to. Some people say they are not a slave to anyone, but that is a falsehood. We are all slaves to something or someone, and it's either Good or evil. There is no other choice.

 

We each must choose whom we will serve. Jesus said, “No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other.” (Matthew 6:24)

 

When we choose to serve God and be a slave to Righteousness, we will despise Satan and sin. You cannot have it both ways. This is a black and white issue, and we MUST each make the choice. We are all slaves to one or the other. 

 

So I give to you these words:  choose this day whom you will serve,

 

Who will you be a slave to? Who will you serve with all your heart? Your family and friends may choose Satan. Will you follow them or will you stand strong for Christ and say, "But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord." (Joshua 24:15)

 

The Right choice will………turn the tide ………...in your life.
