King First and Forever

We all know we are not to worship idols. Leviticus 26:1 repeats the commandment, “You shall not make idols for yourselves…for I am the Lord your God. When Jesus was questioned by the Pharisees in Matthew 22 concerning the greatest commandment He said the first and greatest commandment is to love the Lord your God with all your heart, mind, and soul.

We are to be mindful we can literally turn anything into an idol--anything that possesses our minds--things with which we are obsessed or preoccupied are idols for us. Evaluate your priorities; set them in proper order and give the Lord His due for He is King first and forever.
Give unto the LORD the glory due to His name;
Worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.

The LORD sat enthroned at the Flood,
And the LORD sits as King forever. Psalm 29: 2, 10
