ONLY THE LORD

Luke 4:8  Jesus replied, "The Scriptures say, 'You must worship the Lord your God; serve only him.'"  NLT

       Do you believe the Scriptures or not?  Do we worship the Lord our God and serve Him only?  We worship that which we give our devotion and energy to.  We worship that which captivates us and drives our passions in life.  We can worship our jobs, possessions, sports, people and ourselves. 

      Are we captivated and driven by our love and devotion to the Lord?  Is He the reason we look forward to living?  Is He the reason why we do what we do in life?  Do we really live for the Lord or is He more of an afterthought in our living?

      Do we serve the Lord?  If so, do we serve Him primarily or as an afterthought?  Do we fit Him into our schedules, or does He drive our schedules?  Do we give Him our time and energy when it's convenient for us to do so, or do we seek to honor Him in all we do in life?  Do we allocate time for Him, or is all of our time His? 

      The Scriptures give us no slack here.  It says we MUST worship the Lord our God and serve ONLY Him.  If we fail to obey the Scriptures, it is sin.  How are you doing?  Do you need to get your priorities straight?  The longer you put it off, the less likely you are to do it.
