    Revelation 9:20-21, "The remaining men and women who weren't killed by these weapons went on their merry way-didn't change their way of life, didn't quit worshiping demons, didn't quit centering their lives around lumps of gold and silver and brass, hunks of stone and wood that couldn't see or hear or move. There wasn't a sign of a change of heart. They plunged right on in their murderous, occult, promiscuous, and thieving ways."

    Think

    "God gives us the choice for where we will spend eternity." "I'll get my life together one day, just not today." "YOLO - You only live once!" There are two roads to take in life. One road leads to eternal life, and one road leads to eternal death. Some choose to live life as they want on earth, but in the end, this path leads to death and destruction. The Bible says that someday, as part of God's judgment, plagues will be sent to the earth. However, even with these plagues, there will be people who refuse to turn from their self-centered way of living. These individuals will choose to live life their own way even though they saw warnings from God. God gives us the same choice! His desire is that we will all choose to live with him in Heaven when our life on earth is over. This happens when we choose to exit from the road of sin and place our faith in Christ, who died on the cross so we could be forgiven! Have you determined which road you will take in life? Don't wait, the time is now! None of us is promised tomorrow.

     

    Act

    Which path are you following? If you have chosen to follow Christ, what is one way you can live for Christ today, knowing that no one is promised tomorrow?

     

    Pray

    God, I want to follow your path for my life. Open my eyes and give me the strength to walk the path you have for me. In Jesus' name, Amen.
