Where then are the gods you made for yourselves? Let them come if they can save you when you are in trouble! For you have as many gods as you have towns, O Judah.

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

Let's focus on a straightforward concept today. We must worship God alone! Based on the allocation of our time, interests, lifestyle, money expenditures, and speech, who or what is our god? Is it the Lord God? We do not want to be followers of Jesus in name only and live our lives for false gods. We must love him first and most and only worship him. Only he can deliver us from trouble!

My Prayer...

We are convicted, dear Heavenly Father, of how many false gods crowd into our world and seek our attention. Please bless us and empower us with undivided hearts. We want our hearts to be free from anything false that might distort or diminish our loyalty to you and you alone as God. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
