Substitutions

“Substitutions”


Daniel 3:16
Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, answered and said… “Be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods.”

We use sugar substitute, generic meds, as compared to…cosmetics, perfumes, food, pop, butter…etc. When it comes to the “real thing” we look at the all mighty dollar first. If it looks like, smells like or tastes like the “real thing” we will pick the cheaper every time. On some things we have the tendency to settle. There is one thing we, under no circumstances should we settle for less than the “real thing”. We should never, never, never settle for another god, no matter what. Jesus Christ, the Son of the Living God, is the One. He is the One True and Living God. The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, there is no substitute. We must not serve any other thing or person, but Him. He is the Creator and was here from the beginning of time and before that. God has always been. He is the Great I AM. Do you put anything or any person in God’s place?

Today purpose in your heart to keep Jesus the center of your life and don’t settle for less or for another god. There is eternity to think about.
