Decisions That Will Decide the Quality of Your Life

Pastor Scott Anderson
Malachi 3 We are to give honor to God when we tithe 1 Samuel 2:30 Those who honor God, will be honored Those who displease God will become little Tithing and giving offering is a form of honor we give to God Decisions That Will Decide the Quality of our Lives Matthew 13:19 The first decision is to accept that the bible is the infallible word of God Genesis 3:1-4 It takes a lot of self control to lock in on the things of God We must lock in to the things of God, plug into church Three Reasons the Bible is Penned by God 2 Timothy 3:16 - all scripture is given by God 1: the bible has standards above all human standards 2: the bible changes the aura and the atmosphere of a place 3: It's the only book that actually changes and affects people The second decision is to be a forgiver Romans 12:19 We aren't to avenge ourselves, God will We are to let go of what was done and forgive Forgiving is allowing God to vindicate us in His way Mercy covers us from God and so we will give it to others Search for the hidden benefits that lie in every offense Genesis 45:5 Mercy was given to understand what God had done God knows what is down the road What is happening now will lead to Godly things later Replaying a situation multiplies the impact something has in your life The third decision is to pour your life into your purpose Colossians 3:23 You are called to live and live to the fullest through God Don't do things in life halfway There is no reward for being halfhearted Lukewarm gets spit out of the kingdom of God Don't just go through the motions Always do your best The fourth decision is to avoid strife Genesis 13:8 Don't let the little things become big Strife breaks your focus The fifth decision is to develop right relationships Proverbs 12:26 Choose your friends carefully Anytime God wants to do something in your life He will send someone into your life Anytime devil wants to do something in your life he will send someone into your life 1 Corinthians 15:13 Evil corrupts good Proverbs 13:20 Wise walk with the wise and fools with fools Friends either hold you back or help you go further We are called to be fishers of men, meaning going to the fish and saving souls The sixth decision is to live in the moment John 10:10 Our quality of life is powerful if we're in the moment and living Thank God for what you have now Change is the only constant in life Enjoy today and what you are doing Heaven is sending blessings everyday Don't be too busy complaining of thinking of later that you miss God's blessings 1 Timothy 6:17 Don't be haughty, trust in God because He gives to us We are rich because we have every heavenly blessing Unhappy people are dangerous people The seventh decision is to invest into your health 1 Corinthians 6:19
