What/Who do we worship?

A golden calf...different gods...
These are things that the people in the Bible worshiped.

Money...clothes...possessions...sports players...singers...business men and women...
These are the things and people we worship today.

Every person has worshiped something or someone other than God in their lifetime.
God has placed inside of us a "chip" of some form. Something that gives us a secret passion for Him. We have a choice...we can use that passion from deep down inside to worship God, our creator, or we can choose to worship something else.

Satan will use anything and everything to distract us from worshiping God. In heaven, Lucifer (also known as Satan) was the worship leader in heaven. After being banished from heaven, Satan is going to do anything he can to stop you from worshiping God.

We are able to look up to people, and we are able to have money and other possessions. It is the love of money and the love of those possessions that will hinder us from a relationship with God that is pure. God needs to be our main focus. We need to use that passion that He placed inside of us for Him. That is the reason He gave it to us, and He deserves our praise.

So, what would our relationship with Christ look like if we stopped worshiping these false idols?
Why not try it and find out?
