Episode 162: Can You Worship Two Gods At The Same Time?

Exodus 32 ; Matthew 6:24 “...Who knows what’s happened to him?” These were the questions and sayings of the Israelites when to them- Moses was taking forever to come down from the mountain, when he was on the mountain to pray for 40days and 40 nights. “..., they rallied around Aaron and said, “Do something. Make gods for us who will lead us. That Moses, the man who got us out of Egypt—who knows what’s happened to him?”” ‭‭Exodus‬ ‭32:1‬ ‭MSG‬‬ They made a golden calf to lead them! Imagine! The Church can be likened to the historical Biblical Israelites. Although we do not make a molten golden calf and name it our ‘God’s, there are things we do, objects we adore and position as our god, putting our hope in them. Jesus mentioned in Matthew 6:24 ““No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon [money, possessions, fame, status, or whatever is valued more than the Lord].” ‭ What stands as your golden calf? What stands as my golden calf? PP: I ask for mercy for us all, in any way we have grieved Your Spirit by harbouring a golden calf in our heart. Open our eyes Lord to see our faults and wash us clean with Your Word and with the blood of Jesus so that we will continue to truly serve you with all our heart, mind and body that Your name alone be glorified. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
