From Idols to the Living God

-

 


Why Idols Fail—and God Endures
- Idols are lifeless—products of human invention.
- The worship of any idol is sinful because it causes us to turn away from the Lord.
- The Bible notes that people throughout history have engaged in idol worship.
- Worrying about success, honor, or comfort can usurp the allegiance that is due to God alone.
- Unlike idols, God is living—He always has been and always will be.

Reframe and Renew
- Repent of false trusts; submit old paradigms to God’s truth.
- Turn from idols so that your heart can see and trust the Living God.
- Become a follower of the Way—Jesus.
- Lean into what God is doing next in your life with courage.

Try: Sunday, fast from social media for one hour and pray Psalm 115.

Prayer: God, liberate my heart to trust You. Lead me in Your Way today. Amen.
