Topic: The Power Of Choice [November 27, 2016]
“And the LORD God said, Behold, the man has become as one of us, to know good and evil and now lest he put forth his hand, and take also the tree of life and eat and live forever,” (Genesis 3:22).
When God created man, he gave him the power to choose between life and death. Do you realize that where you are today is partly as a result of the decisions you made yesterday? Most times, Godly choice do not look good because God is not out to impress you. From the above scripture you see that man willingly chose evil. Man made the choice to disobey God.
In verse 23 and 24, man was eventually driven from the garden and a strong angel was put to guide the garden. God had initially given long life to man; but because of disobedience which led man to make the wrong decision, man lost his inheritance.
Disobedience is an avenue for you to make the wrong choices. Your disobedience to divine instruction is determined by your power of choice.
