    My sister was correcting her daughter. My sister said, "Young lady, are you going to do this? Yes, or no?" My niece replied, "OR I choose OR." Totally rebellious, not good behavior, but clever. Strange? Not really, we do that in the Lord. The Lord says if Baal is God, choose him. If the Lord is God, choose Him. But we don't really give an unconditional yes. We don't totally give up the old. We don't fully say "yes" to God, and we don't fully say "no" to the world. We are living in the land of "OR." A little righteous, a little sinful, a little prayer, a little worldly, a little compromise. We live in the land of "OR." It's God, but then there's an idol. We haven't once and for all cut that thing off, or ruled God in. We are living in the land of "OR," and Abraham left the land of Ur. As Abraham's children, you have to leave the land of "OR." Choose yes once and for all. You are going to be blessed the moment you choose and start coming out of the land of "OR."
    From Message #1227 - The Other King
     
    Today's Mission
    Move out of the land of Or and into the land of decision for God. End indecision and begin victory.
