DAY 19 ~ Idolatry

“Son of man, do you see what they are doing, the great abominations that the house of Israel commits here, to drive Me away from My sanctuary” (Ez. 8:4)
Judah’s temple leaders were actually worshiping the sun god INSIDE God’s temple!  The Lord turned away from them because of their idolatry and said He would not hear them.  God withdrew His glory first from within the temple and then from the city.  He held the people of God responsible for His Presence withdrawing from the city.

Idolatry always causes the Lord’s presence to withdraw. In Ezekiel 8-11, God’s Presence left the temple because of the leaders’ idolatry.  This isn’t an example of a lack of God’s Presence, but rather God deliberately choosing to withdraw because of their idolatry.  Paul says in 2 Corinthians 6:16-17, “And what agreement has the temple of God with idols?  For you are the temple of the living God...therefore come out from among them and be separate,” says the Lord. “Do not touch what is unclean. And I will receive you.”

Prayer Points:
*Jesus, I repent for all forms of idolatry in my life; I repent for materialism, love of money, desire for honor and the lust of the flesh.  Father, please identify and root out every other form of worship in my life.
