DAY 2: Read Joshua 24:14-16
[14] “So fear the Lord and serve him wholeheartedly. Put away forever the idols your ancestors worshiped when they lived beyond the Euphrates River and in Egypt. Serve the Lord alone. [15] But if you refuse to serve the Lord, then choose today whom you will serve. Would you prefer the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates? Or will it be the gods of the Amorites in whose land you now live? But as for me and my family, we will serve the Lord.” [16] The people replied, “We would never abandon the Lord and serve other gods.
Joshua 24:14-16 NLT
• Consider this statement: “The pagan gods polluted the nation of Israel and they began carrying the baggage of false gods as a people defined by the one true God.” How are we different or the same?
Application:
• If covenants are so easily broken in our culture, how does that change the way you see God’s covenant with his people?
• If you walked through your home, how many idols do you think you could count?
