“You shall have no other gods before Me. (Exodus 20:3 NKJV)
Pretty simple and clear when you first look at this verse. Yet when there is a lot to be said of this commandment. At first we might read this and think of the false gods of the worlds religions. But there's so much more to it. Lot of things fit into this one; money, friends, entertainment. Sin in and of it's self can become the god we serve. I think when it all comes down to a point, the god we too often serve is simply ourself. For the most part, from the time we wake up to the time our head hits the pillow at night we have a self centered focus. We do all kinds of thing to glorify ourself, yet we forget who the glory really belongs to.
