What/Who Is Your Idol?

I heard the sermon by Dr. Robert Jeffress today titled “Addicted to pleasure”.

The following really strike me.

He said to know what our idols are, ask ourselves 3 questions:

1. What do you talk about most often?

2. What do you think about most often?

3. If somebody were to give you $20,000, how would you spend it?

Your answers to those questions will tell you what the real focus of your life is.

He also said that an idol is not just a wooden statue you bow down to. An idol is anything that you think about, talk about, you spend your money on instead of God.

              *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  * 

It’s frightening because my answer revealed that God is not my focus all the time. My answers reveal that I am the idol of my life.

I thank God for revealing this to me, also pray for His continuous work on my life so as to make Him the center of my life.

I wonder if we ask professing Christians today, what kind of answers will we get.

How do you answer those questions?
