The Truth About Choices We Make – From the “Truth Series” with Alias Jacob
In this episode, Pastor Alias Jacob unpacks the profound impact of our daily choices, showing that every decision—big or small—shapes our future and spiritual destiny. Preaching from Apostolic Church, Sharjah, he highlights Deuteronomy 30:15-20, where God sets before us “life and good, death and evil,” urging us to choose life and blessing. Pastor Alias teaches that while God is sovereign, He gives us the freedom and responsibility to make choices that affect not only our lives but also the lives of future generations.
He explains that many people assume they are fully in control of their decisions, but much of our behavior is influenced by habits, impulses, and even subconscious patterns. Drawing from Romans 7:15-23, Pastor Alias illustrates how even the Apostle Paul struggled to do what he knew was right, admitting, “The things I want to do, I do not do.” This struggle reveals the tension between our intentions and our ingrained habits or impulses.
Discover how to:
- Recognize the powerful role of habits and impulses in decision-making
- Understand the biblical call to “choose life” by loving God and following His ways
- Break free from negative patterns by renewing your mind with God’s Word (Ephesians 4:22-24)
- Make wise, prayerful choices that lead to blessing for you and your family
With relatable examples and practical insights, Pastor Alias encourages listeners to examine their habits and impulses, recognizing that repeated behaviors become automatic and can either help or hinder spiritual growth. He urges believers to intentionally shape their character by aligning daily decisions with God’s truth, not just relying on emotion or routine.
Whether you’re facing a major life decision or simply want to grow in wisdom, this message offers biblical guidance for making choices that honor God and lead to lasting blessing. Your decisions matter—choose wisely, choose life.
