Every God Has Its Altar

Thursday, March 7, 2024

At the time of Israel's apostasy, the land was filled with altars for sacrifices to false gods. Even when the people were in rebellion to God and living in sin, they still offered sacrifices, because a god is that which you sacrifice for. In your life, what is your God? You might say, "My God is God". Ask yourself, what are the things that you are sacrificing for? Are you sacrificing for success, money, comfort, pleasure, sin, lust, yourself, your reputation, or your glory? What are you spending your time, energy, joy, dreams, and thoughts on? Those are your offerings. What are you really sacrificing for? If it's not God, there are other gods in your life and all those other gods in the end will take from you, drain you, and bring you destruction. They're focused on receiving your sacrifice, but there's only One God who sacrificed Himself and died for you. Stop sacrificing to those false gods in your life. Offer your best to the only God who deserves it, because He gave you His best. Go and do likewise.
