You shall have no other gods before Me

Exodus 20:3

You shall have no other gods before Me. (Exodus 20:3)

While on this earth, you can put other “gods” before God. This is called idol worship. An idol is something that you worship other than God. An idol is what you put your hope in, look to for guidance, for help, or for blessing other than the God of the Bible. God wants you to put Him first in your life. Do you have anything in your life that you are putting before God? This verse is also a prediction of the future. One day, you will be kneeling before God and there will be no gods between you and God. The Bible says in Romans 11:14 It is written: “As surely as I live, says the Lord, every knee will bow before Me; every tongue will confess to God.” Put God first in your life and remove any idols. ~ Jeff M Newman
