["Reflections" Of The Father's Heart]
[SEPTEMBER 30TH 2010]
+ When
one esteems "flesh and blood" [or themselves] above Me [in any way, shape
or form] Satan takes that "worship" [idolization] and devotion as
his own - and is given [through their pride and fear] continual inroads
to that one's life and relationships.
"idolize"
-
to regard or esteem with blind adoration, devotion etc; to worship as a god;
...."If
anyone comes to Me, and does not hate [footnote: i.e. by comparison of their
love for Me] his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and
sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be My disciple".... Luke
14:26 NASB
...."You
shall have no other gods before Me".... Exodus 20:3 NASB
...."Therefore,
my beloved, flee from idolatry".... 1 Corinthians 10:14 NASB
