Heavenly Father, when You brought Your chosen people out of Egypt, we learn that they roamed 40 years before reaching the land You promised them. Lord. it is easy to judge the Israelites in their wilderness wanderings as they were continually drawn into idol worship. And yet we ourselves must daily resist the temptation to make people or things more important than You, our heavenly Father. These idols will capture our hearts, our intellect, our passion, our time, and our finances so that the kingdom of God is no longer that which we seek first. Holy Spirit, talk to our hearts and show us the things that need to change. Lord help us be faithful to You in all speech, action and deeds. We thank You and pray this in Your name, Jesus. All glory, honor, and worship belongs to You and You alone. Amen

We do so easily look at ourselves in a mirror and then go about our days doing exactly what we don't want to do and forgetting who we really are in Christ. Thanks for the reminder.

So very true sister Angi. It is why we need to die to the flesh daily. If you have been reading my sermon notes, I share each week the importance of being in the word daily.
