Holding Onto Idols

  

   When I return, will I find My children holding their idols and worshiping them? Will I find them pushing Me aside to make more time for them?

   When will you recognize the god you worship is not Me? When will you see that though you believe your heart and thoughts and time belong to Me, that is far from truth. 

   I am a great King and a mighty God. I am due the first of your time each and every day, yet you bring me just minutes you have leftover.

   Is the King of Kings not due the first of your time?  The most of your thoughts? Your heart?

   You ask Me to honor you with My favor, yet you do not honor Me.                          

Exodus 20:3-6

3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.

5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;

6 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.

Psalm 16:4

4 Their sorrows shall be multiplied that hasten after another god: their drink offerings of blood will I not offer, nor take up their names into my lips.

Colossians 3:5

5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:

Isaiah 44:9-11

9 They that make a graven image are all of them vanity; and their delectable things shall not profit; and they are their own witnesses; they see not, nor know; that they may be ashamed.

10 Who hath formed a god, or molten a graven image that is profitable for nothing?

11 Behold, all his fellows shall be ashamed: and the workmen, they are of men: let them all be gathered together, let them stand up; yet they shall fear, and they shall be ashamed together.

Isaiah 44:18

18 They have not known nor understood: for he hath shut their eyes, that they cannot see; and their hearts, that they cannot understand.

Psalm 135:15

15 The idols of the heathen are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.
