FREEDOM FROM IDOLS – And Their Effects

FREEDOM FROM IDOLS – And Their Effects: Your Earnest Expectations In REDEMPTION!

There’s no place and room for IDOL and IDOLATORY in the services of God in the Kingdom.

An idol is ANYTHING – person’s and or materials – that takes the place of God in Christ Jesus in our causes on the face of God.

Having an Idol ones life, robs one of the pure and genuine acts to WORSHIP God WORTHILY and to SERVE Him ACCEPTABLY in LIFE and GODLINESS.

As the redeemed of God, born of the precious blood of Christ Jesus; and made to be a chosen generation, a peculiar people, a royal priesthood and a holy nation; and to offer unto God the marvellous, gracious and graceful acts of worship and service unreservedly with our being – (1 Peter 2:9); it’s imperative that we do not let any man make an idol god out of us nor make an idol god out of any man for whatsoever in LIFE and GODLINESS. For our God is Holy, Just and Jealous over us in all things.

Therefore, look within you – in hearts and thoughts, for God searches the hearts, mind and thoughts every man to know if genuinely by His WORD, you are free indeed from idol and idolatry.

You can be FREE today and now. Be FREE from IDOL and IDOLATORY – in order to enjoy God’s FAITHFULNESS and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!
