Elijah came near to all the people and said, "How long will you hesitate between two opinions? If the LORD is God, follow Him; but if Baal, follow him." But the people did not answer him a word. I Kings 18:21
Jesus told us we cannot serve two masters. Throughout history many have failed in their efforts to be faithful thinking they could. People will trust in God as far as that goes, but they also trust in other things as well. Often those other things become our idols. It this case it was the false idol of Baal vs. the God of Heaven. Their inability to decide had brought them much grief. Elijah brought them to Mt. Carmel and told them it was time to quit hesitating and choose. Is it time for some damage control in our lives? Let’s choose today whom we will serve, and make it God.
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit
Philippians 4:23
