There is no doubt that we live in America. The U.S. is full of luxuries and conveniences that you can find in no other country. There is no nation like this nation. We are so blessed to live in a Country like this. So you would think that the Christians who live here are just thanking God for such abundance, so think again. We live in a Country that has the most poorest excuse of Christians in all of Christiandom. People who are so busy and time consumed with their own selfish desires, hobbies and activities that i know if it make me a creature puke, I know that it makes God puke. God stated in HIS WORD,
Exo 20:1-3 And God spake all these words, saying, (2) I am the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. (3) Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
Look at these words, I brought you out of EGYPT (SIN) I brought you of the house of BONDAGE (DEATH - HELL). Because of this you shall have no other gods (House, Work, Hobby, Family, Car, Bed, Woman, Man, Laziness) before me.
I could not tell you how much people put other things before God. Nathan the prophet approached King David and asked him a question,
2 Samuel 12:9 Wherefore hast thou despised the commandment of the LORD, to do evil in his sight?.....
So there are Prophets and Pastors and Teachers and Apostles who ask the same questions to those Christians who have not made God number one in their life. You know who you are....
Why have you despised the commandment of the Lord, to do evil in His sight?
What part of "NO OTHER" do you not understand?
Yes, putting things before God is evil and a disobedience to God. If any think otherwise they are decieved and if any think that we are legalistic you have failed to read this:
1 Corinithians 10:21-22 Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, and of the table of devils. (22) Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than he?
or even this:
Jas 4:4-8 Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God. (5) Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy? (6) But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble. (7) Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. (8) Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded.
or even this:
Mat 10:37-38 He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. (38) And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.
What part of " NO OTHER " do you not understand? May the Lord bring revelation to the heart of those who need to serve Him. May the Lord remember our chains no more and may we remember that God is NUMBER ONE above all.
Thank you Jesus.
