Isa 43:10 Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me

My Choice Is His Choice

Psa 47:4  He shall choose our inheritance for us, the excellency of Jacob whom he loved. Selah.

Our enemies would allot us a very dreary portion, but we are not left in their hands. 

The LORD will cause us to stand in our lot, and our place is appointed by His infinite wisdom. 

A wiser mind than our own arranges our destiny, The ordaining of all things is with God, and we are glad to have it so; we choose that God should choose for us.

If we might have our own way we would wish to let all things go in God's way.

Being conscious of our own folly, we would not desire to rule our own destinies. 


We feel safer and more at ease when the LORD steers our vessel than we could possibly be if we could direct it according to our own judgment. 

Joyfully we leave the painful present and the unknown future with our Father, our Savior, our Comforter.

O my soul, this day lay down thy wishes at Jesus' feet! If thou hast of late been somewhat wayward and willful, eager to be and to do after thine own mind, now dismiss thy foolish self, and place the reins in the LORD's hands. 


Say, "He shall choose." If others dispute the sovereignty of the LORD and glory in the free will of man, do thou answer them, "He shall choose for me." 

It is my freest choice to let Him choose. As a free agent, I elect that He should have absolute sway. 

~Charles Spurgeon~
