Idols
You must not make for yourself an idol of any kind.
Exodus 20:4
Most of you probably imagine a gold statue when you hear the word Idol and you think, I don’t have an idol! But an idol doesn’t have to be a statue that you worship. An idol is anything or anyone that you love more than God. So take a step back and look at yourself and your life, what do you reflect? What or who do you spend the most time on? Do you love God the most, or is it a person, or a thing? If you struggle with putting God first in your life pray and ask God to help you put Him first, and also get an accountability partner that can hold you accountable to reading the bible every day and praying, because doing those things are an important part of staying close to God and keeping Him first. You have to spend time with God in order to stay close to Him and keep Him first.
