Your Decision is Your Hedge

Monday, December 20, 2021

In order to live a life of righteousness and blessing and to avoid falling, you need to have hedges in your life - godly hedges and parameters concerning what you can and can't do - hedges to protect your marriage, your home, your family, your relationship, your prayer life, your time in the Word, and your purity - what you'll allow in your life and what you won't, etc. There's a Hebrew word used in the Bible that means boundary, or trench, as in a hedge that you would make to protect something. That same word also means decision. Within this is a revelation. In order to protect your life and your walk in God, you need hedges. But in order to have hedges, you need to make decisions. When you make a decision, you're sealing something, as something not to be broken or crossed. Otherwise, it's not a hedge and it won't protect you. So what hedges do you need in your life and in your walk? What hedges do you need to build in your life? Start building them. And remember, build every hedge with a decision.
