You must worship no other gods, for the Lord, whose very name is Jealous is a God who is jealous about his relationship with you. – Exodus 34:14(NLT)
A JEALOUS GOD
A poem and essay by ILMA
When you commit to God, you must be faithful
He is a very jealous God, he wants you to be truthful
He is very loyal to you so He expects the same
He loves you so he wants you to honor his name.
He doesn’t tolerate idolatry or any competition
He knows he is the only true God without question
He is jealous about his relationship with you
Will you choose to commit to him and be true?
________________________________________
For many decades, I didn’t know that one of my iniquities was idolatry. Because of self-will and independence, the enemy used it to enter my heart. I was blinded by the world’s standard of greatness. I thought that being able to achieve many goals and ambitions was the ultimate indication of success. God proved me wrong. The circumstance that led me to Canada was still an idolatrous act I did. God used it to teach me and convict me of this sin.
The bible tells us that we must not worship other gods for God’s very name is Jealous. He is the essence of love and he expects no less than a sincere and truthful loyalty from those who claim that they love him.
PRAYER
Convict me right away when I become unfaithful to you.
REFLECTION
Why do you think God is a very jealous god?

December 6                                                                           The Power of God’s Word
Therefore, I myself, the Sovereign Lord, am now your enemy. I will punish you publicly while all the nations watch. Because of your detestable idols, I will punish you like I have never punished anyone before or ever will again.
– Ezekiel 5:8-9 (NLT)
A JEALOUS GOD
A poem and essay by ILMA
When you professed your love for Jesus
Did you ever consider that he can be very jealous?
He wants you to love him very faithfully
He doesn’t want competition and hates idolatry.
If you put everything else before him
He will reveal to you that it is a sin
He detests idols and considers it adultery
He wants your complete faithfulness and loyalty.
Have you ever experienced jealousy in any of your relationships? In human relationships, jealousy can be a negative behavior. Do you ever wonder where jealousy comes from? In Exodus 34:14, God’s very name is Jealous. So, we must have gotten jealousy it from our spiritual DNA. In God’s economy, jealousy is very different from our worldly view. God is jealous because he knows what is best for us. We were given a glimpse of the wrath of God in Ezekiel 5:8-9 when the Israelites were having idols. God actually showed them how he detested idolatry. James called it adultery in his book.
PRAYER
Lord, keep me faithful to you.
REFLECTION
Do you make God first in everything?
