“So quickly they have turned aside from the way I ordered them to follow! They have cast a metal statue of a calf, worshipped it, sacrificed to it and said Israel! Here is your god, who brought you up from the land of Egypt.”
Exodus 32:8 CJB
We can easily say that if we were in the place of Israel and saw all the miracles God performed we would never do this sin! We also need to be very careful to make a statement like that because we’ve done and may be doing the same thing now! Do we worship false gods?
“You are to have no other gods before me. You are not to make for yourselves a carved image or any kind of representation of anything in heaven above, on the earth beneath or in the water below the shoreline.”
Exodus 20:3-4 CJB
We need to be careful of social media, our houses, our jobs, our political views and the many electronic devices we have! We all can have a tendency to worship or let things get in the way of Adonai! Do we have to get rid of these things? Only if it gets in the way of our relationship with God!
“No one can be slave to two masters; for he will either hate the first and love the second, or scorn the second and be loyal to the first. You can’t be a slave to both God and money.”
Matthew 6:24 CJB
Today, let’s all take a good look at ourselves and see if there is anything that gets in the way of us and God!
Have a blessed day!
