Daily Vitamin -"Foreign"

Foreign

Psalms 81:9(NKJV)

9
There shall be no foreign god among you; Nor shall you worship any foreign god.

What come to mind when we think of a foreign god? Something far off in another country or another religion, something we are not familiar with. How many of us think that we worship those kind of things? Interesting enough it seems to be a topic that the Bible speaks about quite a lot. Before Jacob could go build an altar in Bethel (Gen.35) it says that God told him to go to Bethel and live and make an altar. the first thing Jacob did was to tell his people to get rid of the foreign gods and purify themselves.  Later in Exodus 20,  God gives Moses the ten commandments what the first one? to have no other gods before Him. In Psalms 81:9 it says not to have them among you! I believe we should be checking our live to see if we have picked up any gods along our journey. Most of the story we read about in the Bible are relating to objects or an items that represents a god. can we have spiritual gods in our lives and not really even know or understand they are there? I believe so we should be looking in the mirror of Gods word routinely and checking is there things that are foreign to Gods way for us. Do we have things that are more important than Daddy God? some time we get a little lazy and allow life to creep in and hold us back. So today take an inventory of your life if there is items or mind sets or false beliefs. Whatever it may be that is holding you back from approaching God in a more interment way get rid of of them. Lets change the world together, be a blessing, Sir Gregory
