God Hates Idol Worship: Christians Steer Clear
(Passage: 2 Kings 10)
King Jehu chose to take a drastic decision amidst his disinterested citizens. The king stomped his feet against idol worship by killing the idol worshipers of his land.
The scripture reported,
“Now it happened, as soon as he had made an end of offering the burnt offering, that Jehu said to the guard and to the captains, “Go in and kill them; let no one come out!” And they killed them with the edge of the sword; then the guards and the officers threw them out, and went into the inner room of the temple of Baal…
…And they brought the sacred pillars out of the temple of Baal and burned them. Then they broke down the sacred pillar of Baal, and tore down the temple of Baal and made it a refuse dump to this day. Thus Jehu destroyed Baal from Israel” (2 Kings 10:26-27)
People Who Serve Idol Will Suffer
God hates idol worship; he is not in friendship with idol worshipers. The Creator requires all people to serve him only. We must not serve any other deity, whether it’s a god of air, land, or sea.
Jehovah made heaven and the earth and request all people to honor him.
People who serve idols and those who arrogate God’s glory to themselves have signed up for a crisis since God does not share his glory with anyone!
A person who desires to enjoy God’s benefits must always give God due honor.
Prayer Against Idol Worship
Dear God, please give me the ability to serve you every day of my life faithfully.
Do not let me share your glory with any idol, but let my life be devoted to faithfully serving you so that I can prosper in the land of the living.
I promise to obey your instructions and remain your true child forever! For in the name of Jesus Christ, I make my requests. Amen.
