Living in Babylon: No Other Gods

Oct 6, 2024    Brock Peters

Joshua 24:14-15 (NLT), “So fear the Lord and serve him wholeheartedly.  Put away forever the idols your ancestors worshiped when they lived beyond the Euphrates River and in Egypt.  Serve the Lord alone.  But if you refuse to serve the Lord, then choose today whom you will serve.  Would you prefer the gods of the Amorites in whose land you now live?  But as for me and my family, we will serve the Lord.”


LifePoint: We need to recognize, remove, and replace the idols in our lives.


From the Heart! - Is idol worship just a thing of the past?  No! Over the next four weeks, we will be looking at how prevalent idol worship still is today.  It may not look the same as it did in the Old Testament, but any time you and I put something other than God #1 in our lives, we are practicing idolatry.  It is crucial that we be alert to idolatry creeping into our lives.  Once we recognize any idols that may be entering our lives, we will use God’s Word to figure out how to remove those idols and then replace them with things that we should be truly worshiping.  


In His Service,
