The Idol of Excuses

We continue with the sermon series son Exodus.This weeks sermon is about The Idol of Excuses.An idol is something we trust more than God. It becomes an authority in our lives. Our fears become more powerful and end up being excuses in not trusting God.We learn 3 types of idols:Idol of Human Approval - The need to be liked, accepted and validated.Idol of Competence - The belief that our worth is tied to our skills, intelligence or ability to perform.Idol of comfort - We don't want to be inconvinienced by God's mission.We should lay down our idols and stop negotiating and simply say 'Here I am God. Send me.'
