What are Modern Day Idols?
When we talk about idol worship, many believe that this only relates to those that worship graven images or deities and false gods and therefore do not see themselves as idol worshippers.
In most cases we discriminate ourselves from people who serve inanimate gods, we tag them evil. The truth is that those people are more committed in serving those graven images they call their god. It is difficult for you to see an occult person miss the time he has to worship place, he is always present, dedicate all his attention to the worship, after the series of incantation and enchantment, there is time given for meditation after the prayer and request for blessings, they wait for response from their oracle or altar whatever.

You see this is how believers in Christ need to adopt, we Christians don’t get it right in this area. We get distracted once its time to give God worship, the activities in our life which we have put before God has made us not to concentrate and devote time for God, we hardly discern when God wants to speak to us, and that is why we fall into temptations and problems.
In this article, I will be elaborating on the idol we serve unintentionally; these idols have kept us in captive unknowing to us.
The fact is that today’s idols have evolved so much that if you do not pay close attention, you will not recognize them and might fall prey unknowingly. If we can define what an idol is, it will help us to unmask them and recognize them for what they really are despite the disguise they might come in.
An idol is anything that takes the place of God in our lives and heart. It is anything that you crave for, want, enjoy and satisfied by or treasure more than God, those things that when you loose them you can get angry with God and begin to question God, sometimes you decide not to go to church because of the anger. Your job, your family, your money, your processions etc. can be elevated to the level of an idol.

Gospelcity Blog is a Christian Online Publication that was created as by the leading and inspiration of the holyspirit, targeted and created solely to keep Christians all around the world edified and Strong in the FAITH, for the Bible says “FAITH cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God, so the outflow of the word of God both in Written and spoken forms are facilitators of Faith, they all work together to make Faith build up in our heart, God is more than ready to blow our mind and do the amazing things that we least expect for us and through us only if we will believe, our glorification is achieved when we keep faith for as long as we live, for there is no man that accept JESUS CHRIST and regret ever doing so.
