The Answer to Every Problemಮಾದರಿ

YOU CHOOSE

The answer to every problem you’ll ever face is in the Bible – but it’s your choice to look for it and believe it. Deuteronomy 30:19 says: I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing…. Then in case you don’t know which is the right choice, it says: therefore choose life, that both you and your descendants may live.

Joshua 24:15 says it this way: …choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve…as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord. Notice that God tells us that we do the choosing.

You see, God will never force His answers on you. His answers are always right, and if you’re smart, you’ll choose them – but it’s always up to you. Just think how powerful that makes you! You are not a victim! You can choose any time to look into God’s Word, take hold of it and believe it. When you do that, your outlook can change, circumstances can change for the better, and faith, peace, and joy can rise up in your heart.

Choose today who you’ll listen to, what you’ll think about, what you’ll talk about. Will you listen to the naysayers or circumstances around you, then spend hours thinking and talking about that? Or will you look to the Bible and start thinking and talking about what God says?

He has said He will supply your needs (Philippians 4:19). He has said He’ll protect you (Psalm 91). He has already paid the price for your healing (Matthew 8:17, 1 Peter 2:24). He has promised you His peace in the midst of every storm (John 14:27). He has put His Spirit inside you (John 14:17, 1 John 4:4). He loves you with an everlasting love (Jeremiah 31:3, 1 John 4:16).

When you know and believe these things–when you choose to think about them and talk about them instead of the circumstances and problems–you not only lift yourself up but you lift up those around you and point them to Jesus. You shine your light and glorify God (Matthew 5:16).

It’s so important to stop in the midst of anxiety, fear and problems to ask yourself that key question: What does the Bible say? That’s where the answers are–both for you and for the world today.
