Making good firm and decisive decisions is an important part of Christian living. By examining the decision making of King Solomon early in his reign, we discover that we need to be decisive when a decision is right and appropriate based on the word of God. When our decisions are based on the promises of God, based on the predictions of God or based on the principles in the word of God, then that is when we know that we have the mind and will of God in our decisions. The course, direction and nature of our lives will be determined by the decisions that we make. If we have a decision to make, let us ask God for grace to do it His way and decide for Him. Other passages mentioned include: 1 Kings 1:1-2:11; 1 Samuel 2:31-36; Exodus 21:14; Numbers 35:33; 2 Samuel 16:5-13; 2 Samuel 19:16-23; Proverbs 25:5.
