                            Topic: Who Are You Truly Serving?
 (Locate a silent environment to worship the Lord and pray in the Spirit. Choose songs of worship and praise the Lord.)
Bible Text: Romans 6:16 KJV
"Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?"
Further Reading: Matthew 6:24, Joshua 24:15, Ephesians 6:6
Meditation:
True loyalty is proven by obedience. Many profess Christ with their mouths but deny Him in their actions. Some want to serve both God and the world, but that is impossible. Jesus made it clear: *"No man can serve two masters..."* (Matthew 6:24).  
Who truly has your obedience? Is it God or Mammon?  
- If you prioritize your job, family, or material wealth over God, then those things have become your Mammon.  
- If your education or ministry has taken the place of personal communion with God, then that is your Mammon.  
- If your love for money, leisure, or worldly success dictates your choices more than the voice of Christ, then you are serving Mammon.  
God says, "Give," but Mammon says, "Hold back."  
God says, "Seek first My Kingdom," but Mammon says, "Seek your own gain first."  
Who are you truly obeying? Many have replaced God with personal ambitions, relationships, and worldly pleasures, yet they still claim to serve Him. But the truth remains: *
Whoever you obey is your master.
The time has come to search our hearts and choose this day whom we will serve.  
Quote:
"Divided loyalty is disloyalty to God." 
Commitment:
Lord, I surrender all to You! I refuse to serve Mammon. I choose to obey Christ alone!  
Prayer Points:
1. Lord, search my heart and expose anything that has taken Your place in my life, in Jesus name.  
2. Father, deliver me from the grip of Mammon and set my heart on fire for You, in Jesus name.  
3. Lord, help me to serve You with all my heart, without divided loyalty, in Jesus name.
