Idols are dead substitutes for the Living God. Whatever people delight in other than God, whatever they are devoted to and sacrifice for, whatever they can't bear to be without, is an idol and therefore under the condemnation of God.
"Anything you have that you cannot give away, you don't really own; it owns you." - Albert Schweitzer
Lord, you know my struggles. You know my battles. I lay them at the Cross and ask for your help to be fully devoted to you and not to man, things or any other idol. I want to be in full devotion and service to you. Reveal to me my strongholds and loosen the chains. In the power of the Blood, amen.
