The Bible teaches us to avoid idols but what does that mean? Well, anything we love too much can become an idol such as a person, money, our job or other things. Very few people in today’s world worship statues like they sometimes did in ancient days. Jesus went into the wildness as part of His mission to be tempted by Satan and when faced with difficulty He quoted scripture saying “For it is written: ‘You shall worship the Lord your God and serve Him only.'” (Matthew 4:10b NASB). We should be strong in our testimony of God and the more scripture we know the better equipped we can be to fight against temptation. Praise God for His word, His sacrifice for us on the cross and His love. Amen
