Whom Will You Serve?

The Lord is the only true God. Many may worship ‘gods’ but they are not real. Though we may not have idols that we bow down too, we may have other things in our lives that can or have become like an idol. Anything that takes 1st place in our lives – above God, has become an ‘idol’. These things may not be wrong in themselves, but if it has become all-consuming it can be like an idol. As Joshua says here we need to rid ourselves of these. We should fear God and serve Him only. God does not want to share the throne of our hearts with anything else.

So today, choose whom you shall serve. We need to make that choice ourselves. God has given us that free will. We need to think of what is beneficial to us. To serve what is ‘false’ or what is ‘truth’. To give priority to other things or God. We have to choose. I say with Joshua, “But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord”.

We need to choose who our allegiance is for
But as for me and my house, it is for the Lord
