In contrast to the greatness of God, we see the idols of man are death, dumb, and blind. This scripture tells us that if you trust in them, you will become like them, taking on their characteristics. That is why it is so important to worship the true and the living God.
John tells us in 1 John 3:2, "Beloved, now we are the children of God, and it has not yet been revealed what we going to be. But, we know that when He is revealed, we will be like Him." Serving the true and the living God is such a blessing. Every day has meaning, and His Word provides knowledge and direction for life.
How tragic to see men worshipping power, wealth, pleasure. Becoming like their gods, being obsessed by lust, greed, and position. Just look around and you will see it in every aspect of society; politics, business, sports, and unfortunately even in the church, as some men use their influence to acquire what they want as opposed to what God may want.
Just remember this, whatever you worship, you will become like it. So I guess the question is, “What do you want to be like?”
The Truth: "But we, with open face beholding the glory of the Lord, are being changed from glory to glory into the same image." (2 Corinthians 3:18)
