There is only one God. Yes, there may be many gods (little g), but only One that can save us. Yet we strive to worship and serve the little gods. For some reason we must have some input into our worship that makes us feel good. Even if we can’t craft a god, we certainly can prescribe attributes we want him to have, thus creating a god of our “own liking”. This idolatry, replacing God with something else, is rampant in today’s society. The only solution to it, and we are all guilty in some ways, is to stop, and be still, and know God. The God of the Bible is the only true God. And Jesus is the only One that can truly save. That’s exactly what His name means. Is He Lord of your life?
4 “I have been the Lord your God ever since I brought you out of Egypt. You must acknowledge no God but Me, for there is no other savior.
Hosea 13:4
8 “O Israel, stay away from idols!I am the One who answers your prayers and cares for you.I am like a tree that is always green;all your fruit comes from Me.” 9 Let those who are wise understand these things.Let those with discernment listen carefully.The paths of the Lord are true and right,and righteous people live by walking in them.But in those paths sinners stumble and fall.
Hosea 14:8-9
