"Shall a man make gods unto himself, and they are no gods."
One great besetting sin of ancient Israel was idolatry, and the spiritual Israel are vexed with a tendency to the same folly.
Remphan's star shines no longer ,and the women weep no more for Tammuz, but Mammon still intrudes his golden calf.
The Lord said to me on a very day which was on Wednesday. He said , the shrines of pride are not forsaken. Self in various forms struggles to subdue the chosen ones under its dominion ,and the flesh sets up its alters wherever it can find space for them . The Lord further continued by saying that He was deeply grieved when He sees us doting upon them above measure, they will live to be as great a curse.
"The dearest idol I have known,
Whatever that idol be;
Help me to tear it from thy throne,
And worship only thee."
God help us . Amen🙏🏼
