Who You With?

There  is an age old saying that has resurged in popularity among the young folks of our generation.  The statement comes in the form of a question, "Who You With"?  That isn't good grammar but it definitely gets the point across.  


In life there are times you have to draw a "line in the sand" and declare "Who You With"!  Where I grew up, when an altercation took place between two friends, very seldom could one remain "Neutral."  You had to make the tough choice of "who you are with".  One or the other, no middle of the road stuff, choose your side and let us know, Who You With?  Those were the unwritten rules of friendship!


Matthew 12:22-30, Jesus healed a man who was possessed, blind and dumb (mute).  The religious crowd accused Him of healing by the power of the devil.  Jesus answered, "...a house divided against itself can not stand..." His argument was that if He was the devil, then how could he cast out himself?  


Then he said, "he that is not with me is against me!"  What a thing for Jesus to say, if you aren't with him, you are against him.  Whether in battle, business or banking it is critical to know, who you are with.  It would be awkward to walk into Bank of America and demand money from your account when you are with Wells Fargo.  Upon seeing the how confused you are they may ask you, "Who You With."


Today you need to decide who you are with and declare that you are wholeheartedly, "on the Lord's side."  He is on your side and promised that He would never leaver nor forsake you (Hebrews 13:5,6).  That is a promise that you can take all the way to Heaven.  


Faith Confession:  Father I decree today that I am on your side and my life will be a representation of that fact. I will let my light shine so that others will clearly see that you are Lord of my life and there will never be a doubt as to "Who I'm With", in the name of Jesus, Amen!
