The God or god(s) we seek affect the way we live.
We read of Josiah that “in the eighth year of his reign, while he was yet a boy, he began to seek the God of David his father, and in the twelfth year he began to purge Judah and Jerusalem of the high places, the Asherim, and the carved and the metal images.” (2 Chronicles 34:3)
The God of David was incompatible with the gods of Josiah’s father and grandfather. Seeking Jehovah was incompatible with cultural idolatry. Things had to change. The idols had to go.
If worshiping God is just about a Sunday morning experience, we are not worshiping God. We’re just having an experience.
Worshiping God is a lifestyle incompatible with cultural idolatry. Seeking God, things have to change. The idols have to go.
Who does your lifestyle reveal your God or god(s) to be?
