When All Looks Bright
Deuteronomy 6:10-19
10 When the LORD your God brings you into the land he swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, to give you—a land with large, flourishing cities you did not build, 11 houses filled with all kinds of good things you did not provide, wells you did not dig, and vineyards and olive groves you did not plant—then when you eat and are satisfied, 12 be careful that you do not forget the LORD, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery.
Bee's Thoughts:
When someone we loved is paying attention to another person more than us we tend to feel jealous. Likewise, God can be jealous when we worship anyone or anything other than Him. Sometimes, another person or our career may become our object of worship unconsciously. We need to be careful of this.
Testing God shows our disbelief in God, which displeases God. Satan also tried to test Jesus but failed.
Dear Lord,
I pray that I will not worship any other gods besides You. Help me to give my body as a living sacrifice, which is a reasonable worship to You. Let me trust You in my work and everything in my life.
In Jesus' name. Amen.

13 Fear the LORD your God, serve him only and take your oaths in his name. 14 Do not follow other gods, the gods of the peoples around you; 15 for the LORD your God, who is among you, is a jealous God and his anger will burn against you, and he will destroy you from the face of the land. 16 Do not test the LORD your God as you did at Massah. 17 Be sure to keep the commands of the LORD your God and the stipulations and decrees he has given you. 18 Do what is right and good in the LORD's sight, so that it may go well with you and you may go in and take over the good land that the LORD promised on oath to your forefathers, 19 thrusting out all your enemies before you, as the LORD said.
