SPA FOR THE SOUL ~

No Other God
Read Exodus 32:1 through 34:35
“Wow! I wish I could sing like her.” Kelsy beamed as she yelled her dreams to her mom standing next to her. They’d managed to snag front row tickets to see a tween rocker in concert. The music blared and lights danced rhythmically, enhancing the fantasy. It was going perfectly until the scantily clad male dancers joined the starlet on stage.
Kelsey’s face mirrored the shock her mom felt, whose cheeks flushed first with embarrassment, then with anger. In an instant, the teen idol turned two fans cold and left an image carved in their hearts that would take much time to fade.
Idols come in many forms—people and things.
Then the Lord said to Moses, “Go down, because your people... have become corrupt. They have been quick to turn away from what I commanded them and have made themselves an idol cast in the shape of a calf” (Exodus 32:7,8).
Anything can quickly take the place of God if we are not careful. But before God takes steps to discipline us, we can search our hearts for any idols we have set up. Then we can repent and rededicate our lives to the Lord.
Prayer for Today: Lord, help me give my heart to You alone.
Quicklook: Exodus 32:7–14
