The Dangers of Serving the “god” of this World

Many people don’t realize there is a God in Heaven and there is a “god” of this world. Now when I speak of God, I’m talking about the God of Israel, Abraham, Isaac, Moses, etc, his name, as we know it, Yahweh. Believers we are warned in the bible about the “god” of this world, 1 John 5:19, 2 Corinthians 4:4, Ephesians 2:2, John 12:21. Many unknowingly follow worship, support, and serve the “god” of this world, even believers and this is very dangerous. Now, some gladly follow, support, worship, and serve the “god” of this world, and they will continue to do so as long as they get what they “think” they are going to get. However, for believers we are called to be separate, 2 Corinthians 6:14-18. I know it’s hard because you live in this world but at the end of the day, if you claim you are on God’s side, your actions should line up at some point in your life. Your decisions should start to reflect God’s heart, actions, mind, and principles.

If you are one of the believers that want to walk on the narrow road, you have to wake up and put your foot down and follow after God for real. This is not the time to still be following, supporting, and doing every single thing people in this world do, because, what’s going to happen is that you will be too comfortable with your surroundings and start to think its normal, and when it’s time to let go of it, you won’t be able to, such as what happened to Lot’s wife, Genesis 19:26. The “god” of this world wants you to make people your “idol” when God is against idolatry. The “god” of this world calls what is good evil and what is evil good. Furthermore, the “god” of this world wants you to follow it so it can drag you towards the “system” where you will blindly accept the mark of the beast. The “god” of this world as much as you may “think” is helping you, it is not, it’s helping you get further away from God’s law, his principal, his love, and his protection. God has given us free will you can choose the “god” of this world or you can choose the God of Heaven, it’s up to you. I can only encourage you to not go on a deep, dark, unforgiving road that will eventually lead to death, but your final destination choice is up to you.

God will continue to protect those who follow after him with all their hearts, mind, and soul and if you are one of those people, I encourage you to keep on believing in God, choosing God, and living for God, I promise you, you won’t regret it! Don’t make people, celebrities, politicians, false pastors, teachers, leaders, Bishops, Priests, etc., your spoke person or a “god” in your life, Exodus20:3-5, 23:13, God is the one with the real power and authority. Don’t look to this world for wisdom, but seek God for it, all good things come from above, Proverbs 2:1-22. Keep your focus on God draw near to him and he will draw near to you.

Ezekiel 28:“ The word of Yahweh came again unto me, saying, Son of man, say unto the prince of Tyrus, Thus saith Yahweh; Because thine heart is lifted up, and thou hast said, I am a God, I sit in the seat of God, in the midst of the seas; yet thou art a man, and not God, though thou set thine heart as the heart of God: Behold, thou art wiser than Daniel; there is no secret that they can hide from thee: With thy wisdom and with thine understanding thou hast gotten thee riches, and hast gotten gold and silver into thy treasures: By thy great wisdom and by thy traffick hast thou increased thy riches, and thine heart is lifted up because of thy riches: Therefore thus saith Yahweh; Because thou hast set thine heart as the heart of God; Behold, therefore I will bring strangers upon thee, the terrible of the nations: and they shall draw their swords against the beauty of thy wisdom, and they shall defile thy brightness. They shall bring thee down to the pit, and thou shalt die the deaths of them that are slain in the midst of the seas. Wilt thou yet say before him that slayeth thee, I am God? but thou shalt be a man, and no God, in the hand of him that slayeth thee. Thou shalt die the deaths of the uncircumcised by the hand of strangers: for I have spoken it, saith Yahweh. Moreover the word of Yahweh came unto me, saying, Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyrus, and say unto him, Thus saith Yahweh; Thou sealest up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty. Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created. Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire. Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee. By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire. Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee. Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee. All they that know thee among the people shall be astonished at thee: thou shalt be a terror, and never shalt thou be any more. Again the word of Yahweh came unto me, saying, Son of man, set thy face against Zidon, and prophesy against it, And say, Thus saith Yahweh; Behold, I am against thee, O Zidon; and I will be glorified in the midst of thee: and they shall know that I am Yahweh, when I shall have executed judgments in her, and shall be sanctified in her. For I will send into her pestilence, and blood into her streets; and the wounded shall be judged in the midst of her by the sword upon her on every side; and they shall know that I am Yahweh. And there shall be no more a pricking brier unto the house of Israel, nor any grieving thorn of all that are round about them, that despised them; and they shall know that I am Yahweh. Thus saith Yahweh; When I shall have gathered the house of Israel from the people among whom they are scattered, and shall be sanctified in them in the sight of the heathen, then shall they dwell in their land that I have given to my servant Jacob. And they shall dwell safely therein, and shall build houses, and plant vineyards; yea, they shall dwell with confidence, when I have executed judgments upon all those that despise them round about them; and they shall know that I am Yahweh.
