<\/a>Joshua led the Hebrew nation across the flooded Jordan River to take the city of Jericho. Joshua fought beside the warriors of Israel to conquer the tribes inhabiting their land. But most importantly, Joshua followed God, Joshua believed God, Joshua served God.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
At the renewing of their Covenant with God, Joshua gathered the entire Hebrew nation and they presented themselves to God. Joshua recounted the mighty acts of God since their freedom from Egypt was given. And then, Joshua spoke these powerful words.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cNow fear the Lord and serve him with all faithfulness. Throw away the gods your forefathers worshiped beyond the River and in Egypt and serve the Lord. But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your forefathers served beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.\u201d<\/em> (Joshua 24:14-15 \u2013 NIV)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n These words of Joshua resonate with those who also choose to serve the Almighty God. These words call us to action. These words call us to service. These words call us to commitment.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n How committed are you to the Almighty? What are you willing to give up in order to serve the One True God? Who is joining you along this journey?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n I don\u2019t know where you land. But what I do know is that I will serve the Lord. My household will serve the Lord.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Today\u2019s song is just another reminder of Joshua\u2019s words. I pray that you are willing to join me in singing \u201cMe and My House.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u201cMe and My House\u201d<\/p>\n We stand here together as a family <\/p>\n We\u2019ve chosen together as a family <\/p>\n Through the heat of the day <\/p>\n Chose you this day <\/p>\n We\u2019ll serve Him <\/p>\n Chose you this day <\/p>\n The Heritage Singers have a great version of this song.

\nWe join hands together
\nLifting praises to the father above
\nFor sending His son<\/p>\n
\nTo serve Him forever
\nKnowing nothing else will matter in time
\nWe made up our minds<\/p>\n
\nWe will join in the fight
\n\u2018Til he takes us away
\n\u2018Til our faith becomes sight
\nAs for me and my house, we will serve the Lord<\/p>\n
\nTell me who will you serve
\nLet nothing stand in your way
\nGive the praise He deserves
\nAs for me and my house, we will serve the Lord<\/p>\n
\nWe\u2019ll serve Him
\nWe\u2019ll serve Him
\nFor He is worthy<\/p>\n
\nTell me who will you serve
\nLet nothing stand in your way
\nGive the praise He deserves
\nAs for me and my house, we will serve the Lord[i]<\/a><\/p>\n
