Deny The Idolatry Of Your Heart

Idolatry is not just statues and sculptures, paintings and arts. Have God in the first place

Many people do not know what idolatry is because it is not only to worship an image; idolatry is at the heart of the human being. The most predominant idolatry is the greed. Many people quit images, but they love money or because of the husband, wife, son or friends, fail to seek God. That is idolatry. When you fail to love God because of someone or something, that is idolatry. In Ezekiel 14:1, the elders seek the Prophet to talk about idolatry. Some of them break down images as a symbol of the order of idolatry, but idolatry is at heart, as well as God inhabits the heart. Many Christians have a cold prayer because they pray as those elder people, with idols promoted within their hearts. Although they did God's work, there were priorities about God. Not the most important people in my life can take the place of God. Those men exerted influence over the other and, as elected idols to their hearts passed it to everyone, which made God's heart feel sad. The best thing, instead, is to teach people that the power of prayer is in loving God, that everyone can change everything by understanding the value of God. God told the Prophet to say to them they upset God`s heart by raising idols. This Idol can be your loved one. The strength of your prayer is in loving God. If you want to receive, use God, but if you want to be happy, to win, so let God use you

If you notice, most of the prayers are questions because many of us want satisfaction, we want to put God against the wall, but God is in all situations in which you find yourself. Put God above all and all you'll get.

We don't have to be desperate because after asking we know that God will hear and answer us. Idolatry in the hearts of men saddens the heart of God, and God knows the hearts of men, only when we get rid of idolatry, God will answer our prayers. God says that when someone loves Him, He puts this person`s name in the list of His priorities and even in a situation like that, He tries to destroy and annihilate the evil of a region and everyone in it because of the person`s name in the list, He saves and changes everything. If you love God, you will be spared. Take the idolatry of the heart and elect the Lord our God, as the owner of your heart. The Center is God.
