Text: Deuteronomy 12:1-32
Before the people of Israel entered the land, Moses warned them about the things of false worship. The people of the land would be destroyed, but so must their religious things, like the altars for worshipping false gods (vv. 1-5). If the enemies and their worship things remained, the Israelites would be led away from serving the only true God, Yahweh, to worship idols, which destroy the soul.
We must also be careful about the things that lead us away from God. If you once trusted in the witchcraft, and had those things in your home, you need to destroy them (Acts19:19). If you were once part of a religion that used special beads or clothes or statues, etc., then you need to get rid of those things.
To worship rightly we must be united to Jesus alone, we are to be “clothed” with Christ (Gal.3:27; Rev.6:11; 7:14), and worship God only according to His instructions in Scripture (Deut.12:32).
Meditate on verses 1 – 5. How are you going to apply them to your life?
Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, thank You for leading me to worship You, the only true God. Heal our land of idolatry. Amen
