Bowing to Idols

2 Kings 17:15 “They worshiped worthless idols and became worthless themselves.  They followed the example of the nations around them disobeying the Lord’s command not to imitate them.”   

Watch yourself, see how much you follow those of the world.  How much are you obeying me?  How much of your life is patterned after My Word, and how much after what is around you on this earth?  Watch you don’t become as worthless as the Israelites were to Me at this point. Just as I allowed my people to be conquered and carried off to Assyria, so you, too, will be carried off by whatever it is that you follow.  How far away from Me are you right now?  How much farther do you wish to go?  You have strayed from Me, from My path.  You have allowed the sinful desires and practices of this world to distract and mislead you.  Be careful. Take note of what happens after time.  Are you not afraid of becoming even more enslaved to your lusts and desires, to this world?  You should be. Just as wrong as it was for the new settlers in Israel to worship idols in my towns, so is it wrong for you to worship me in my Church, while bowing to idols in your life. (2005)
