I am reading a book called "god's at war" by Kyle Idleman. Check out the video below.
A god is what we sacrifice for and what we pursue. Does that shock you? If you are pursuing something in your life more than God, then whatever that pursuit is, has become your god and you are guilty of idolatry. We all have been guilty of this, including myself. If you are choosing something over God, the Bible calls that idolatry.
The author Kyle writes "Idolatry isn't just one of many sins; rather it's the one that all others come from."
Before you start asking God for something that you want, you need to ask yourself a question. Do I expect God to bless me in an area that represents competition to Him?
If you are asking God to bless you in an area that you worship more than Him, you might want to make some changes. Begin with confession and repentance and seekign His will for your life.
The author Kyle writes "God's not going to bless the one area of your life that is robbing Him of His place on the throne of your heart."
