Today's Scripture *September 10, 2008*
2 Kings 17: 27-29
The king of Assyria then commanded, “Send one of the exiled priests back to Samaria. Let him live there and teach the new residents the religious customs of the God of the land.” So one of the priests who had been exiled from Samaria returned to Bethel and taught the new residents how to worship the Lord.
But these various groups of foreigners also continued to worship their own gods. In town after town where they lived, they placed their idols at the pagan shrines that the people of Samaria had built.
The new settlers in Israel worshipped God without giving up their pagan customs.
They worshipped God to appease Him rather than to please Him, treating Him as a good luck charm or just another idol to add to their collection.
A similar attitude is common today. Many people claim to believe in God while refusing to give up attitudes and actions that God denounces. God cannot be added to the values we already have! He must come first, and His Word must shape all our actions and attitudes!
Thank You Lord Jesus for Your Word to us!
Shape us and mold us, God!
May we be focused on You and Your Values and direction for our lives.
You are the only God we serve! The One and Only God of our lives!
In Jesus' Righteous Name, Amen..
Bless You!
