Study Notes
SNL Offering Thought - Choices That Are Good for You
- Introduction: God created humans with free will, and choices determine future outcomes. Many choices in the world focus on "feeling good," but these aren't necessarily good because they can involve sin.
- Romans 12:9: "Abhor what is evil; hold fast to what is good."
-
Choices That Are Good for You: Three important considerations:
- Holding Fast to What Is Good (Romans 12:9): Renewing minds through God's Word helps determine good choices. Don't follow the world's customs, but let God transform your thinking so you know His will.
- Following God's Way (Proverbs 3:5-6): Trust in the Lord, not your own understanding. Seek His will in all things.
- Godly Friends (Proverbs 18:24): Surround yourself with positive influences. Daniel's friends exemplify this. Avoid negative influences.
Impact of Choices
- Choices and Future Outcomes: Young people's choices influence their futures, affecting careers and paths.
- Importance of Right Choices: Christians need to discern what is truly good, not just what feels good, according to God's principles.
- Renewing Your Mind: The world’s ideas can be confusing. As Christians, we need to be renewing our minds through God's Word to know what is truly good for our lives.
- Right vs Wrong Choices: The world can confuse a Christian with many choices but you need to choose your path to your future.
- God's Will: God's will for your future is good, pleasing, and perfect, unlike worldly choices that might only feel good.
- King Rehoboam: Illustrates the danger of ignoring wise counsel and listening to friends who have poor influence, leading to poor choices and consequences.
Key Principles and Applications
- Principle of Godly Friendship: The people you choose to be around will influence your decisions.
- Importance of Counsel: Seeking and following the counsel of wise advisors is crucial.
- Avoiding Evil and Choosing Good: Avoiding worldly influences and seeking God's will are essential for making sound choices with positive outcomes.
