Idolatry is the
turning of our affections away from God and towards someone or something
else. It is what we deem to be most
important in our lives. It is robbing
God of the love and devotion He deserves.
It is denying God the gratitude of our hearts for who He is and what He
has done.
Idolatry is sin and
prevents God from blessing our lives.
Where idolatry resides there can be no peace or joy from God. Any benefits that may come from an idolatrous
heart are very fragile and fleeting.
They fail to satisfy the longing of the soul. Don’t let sin take away from you the
blessings the Lord wants to give to you.
If you want to make
it to heaven, you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, not just
part of it. You shall put Him before
anything else in your life. You shall
acknowledge His role in your life as your Father. You shall not attribute to anyone or anything
else the glory do Him. You shall live in
awe of Him, for He is God, who provides for your every need.
Don’t
be stubborn and rebellious. Don’t turn
your heart away from Him. Don’t chase
after the empty promises of the world.
Don’t let the momentary pleasures of sin draw you away from God.
Let
the Lord be your God. Let Him fill your
life with His life. Acknowledge Him and
give Him the glory and honor He deserves in all things and you will be truly
blessed.
