Devotionals
And he received them at their hand, and fashioned it with a graving tool, after he had made it a molten calf: and they said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt. Ex. 32:4
God is not honored when we worship things. He wants our devoted worship to be to Him only.
These people in the wilderness, thought they would derive more joy out of serving a golden calf rather than God. They even claimed that it was their god that brought them up out of Egypt. They had sinned and turned aside against the Lord, their True God. They did not follow the ways of the Lord. Instead they rejoiced in the work of their own hands.
Our God is a jealous God and wants us to worship only Him, for He is the only true God. All others gods will fall and pass away, but the Eternal God is our Savior.
WORSHIP GOD ONLY
In the Bible we are told
A story of old
Jeroboam made a calf
But it was not even half
A calf, was to be a god
Isn't that odd?
Our God was not honored
But very dishonored
Molten images will not last
To God we must hold fast
