What are You Going to Chase Today?
Read 1 Corinthians 10:14-17
Today’s Truth
When we give our lives to Jesus, He doesn't become part of our life, He is our life. That's the message the apostle Paul sends to the church in Corinth. They were eating and drinking the Lord's Supper, then continuing to offer sacrifices or eat at pagan temples. Instead of committing to following Jesus, church members were keeping their options open by continuing to worship at the pagan temple. Paul urges them to stop straddling the fence.
Discussion Questions
- Are you trying to follow Jesus with half of your heart in your old life?
- What is one thing you need to let go of to live fully devoted to Jesus? What step can you take today to let it go?
Application
We can't chase sin and pursue Jesus at the same time. To pursue one, we must turn our backs on the other. It's a daily struggle. Every morning when our feet hit the ground, we have a choice to make: Am I going to chase after sin today or am I going to pursue Jesus?
Jesus laid down His life for us. He didn't hold anything back from us. Let’s not hold anything back from Him.
