Have You Tried Everything Else? Now Try Jesus (Idol Worship, Cont'd) (Pt.4) (349) - May 9 2026

You might be thinking, why are we doing a part 4 on idol worship? Because it’s time to wake up to the reality of the things you are doing to yourself. Yes, there are things that the devil tries to do, but sometimes the enemy doesn’t even have to attack you because you are attacking yourself. Sabotaging yourself, feeding the darkness in your life yourself. Yes, you might be your own weapon formed against yourself. Luke 19:10 - 10 For the Son of Man came to seek and to save that which was lost. Commentary - Sometimes, we are lost and it’s not because of the idols. Make sure you are just lost and not a part of, deliberately defying or running away from Jesus. Why, an idol has no power unless we give it power. How, we open the door ourselves to sin and evil. God’s warning - Exodus 20:3 says - 3 You shall have no other gods before or besides me. We decide to do the action of coming into agreement with idols and worshipping them. We decide to make bad choices, we decide to be around evil people, things, to get what we think they will give us. It is people who carry out the sin by agreeing to do things. Example – Some people have decided to go to witch doctors and let evil into their lives. Some people are doing witchcraft. It’s people who have abused children. Then they cry out for the Lord to help them after killing, stealing and destroying. Yes, idols are a part of things but you have to agree to do the sin, go in debt, have sex outside of marriage, steal someone’s things, not pay your bills, spend the money, not study for school exams. These are only some examples. Remember we reap what we have sown. This means what you have done to others, wished against others, prayed against others, it’s all coming back to you. Do you have fear of the Lord now? Hosea 4:6 - 6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge; because you [the priestly nation] have rejected knowledge, I will also reject you that you shall be no priest to Me; seeing you have forgotten the law of your God, I will also forget your children. Revelation 3:10 - 10 Because you have guarded and kept My word of patient endurance [have held fast the lesson of My patience with the expectant endurance that I give you], I also will keep you [safe] from the hour of trial (testing) which is coming on the whole world to try those who dwell upon the earth. Biblical idol definition - 1 John 5:21 - Little children, keep yourselves from idols (false gods)— [from anything and everything that would occupy the place in your heart due to God, from any sort of substitute for Him that would take first place in your life]. Amen (so let it be). Topics for this week: - We can be our own worst enemy - Know the devices of the enemy - Results of worshipping idols, continued - Removing idol worship from your life This program covers the following Scriptures from the Amplified Classic version (AMPC): Luke 19:10, Exodus 20:3, Hosea 4:6, Revelation 3:10, 1 John 5:21, Exodus 32:7-8, John 10:27-28, Isaiah 53:6, 1 Peter 2:25, 2 Corinthians 2:11, Exodus 32:7, John 10:7-11, Isaiah 44:6-11, 1 Corinthians 10:12-15, Zechariah 4:6, James 5:16, Hebrews 13:5-6, 1 Corinthians 10:23-24, Proverbs 24:3-5, Proverbs 24:12, Proverbs 24:14, 1 Corinthians 5:10, 1 Corinthians 5:12, Leviticus 26:1-14.Support the showClick Here to Send Us Your Prayer Request.
