WHO IS YOUR MASTER?
TEXT: ROMANS 6:12-18
Key Verse:
“Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey... ?" (Romans 6:16a).
A master is someone who has general authority and rule over others. God is the overall Master of the world. The devil fights every day to be master and have control of people's lives, but the Bible warns us to beware of him.
Someone who is righteous is of God, for God is good and holy, and in Him there is no sin. Anyone who commits sin is of the devil, for the devil has been a sinner from the beginning. Therefore, Satan is the master of a child who continues in sin.
God has given us the right to choose who we will serve. Who will you choose? Jesus, Who came to save us from sin, or Satan, who came to capture people he will take with him to hell fire? Satan is not a good master.
The choice you make today determines where you will spend eternity. If you choose righteousness, you will be with Jesus in heaven, but if you choose evil, you will live forever with Satan in hell fire. So, take the right decision today by making Jesus your Master so that you can be with him in heaven forever.
Prayer: Help me Lord, to make the right choice and live eternally with my Master, Jesus.
