Life is full of noise—voices demanding our attention, steering our decisions, and shaping our direction. At the end of his life, Joshua gathered the people and laid down a bold declaration: "Choose this day whom you will serve." He wasn’t just making a personal decision—he was leading his household with clarity and courage. In a world pulling us in a thousand directions, that same choice confronts us daily: Which voice will we follow?
Our springboard for today’s discussion is:“And if it is evil in your eyes to serve the Lord, choose this day whom you will serve… But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” —Joshua 24:15 (ESV)
Every day is filled with choices—and the voices we listen to often determine the roads we take. The voice of fear tells us to stay safe. The voice of compromise whispers, “It’s not that big a deal.” The voice of culture yells, “Follow your heart!” But God’s voice calls us higher, deeper, and truer—to a life rooted in purpose and promise.
Joshua didn’t ask the people to make a future commitment. He didn’t say, “Choose when it’s easier.” He said, “Choose today.” Because the real danger isn’t loud rebellion—it’s silent drift. When we stop choosing God daily, we slowly drift away without even noticing.
Joshua didn’t just choose for himself—he chose for his home. That’s leadership. That’s devotion. And that’s a model for us to follow.
Question of the Day:Whose voice are you listening to today—and what choice is it leading you to make?
Let’s Pray:Lord, help me to silence every voice that pulls me away from You. Give me ears to hear Your truth, and a heart bold enough to choose You daily. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
