Day 181 Idolatry Then and Now: Lessons from 2 Kings 17 by founding writer Torrie Slaughter 

⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

The story of 2 Kings 17 serves as a sobering reminder of the perils of idolatry and the ongoing battle we face against false gods in our lives. Just as the Israelites were led astray by their devotion to idols, we too can fall prey to the seductive allure of worldly pursuits and false gods. However, by learning from their mistakes and drawing wisdom from the Scriptures, we can guard our hearts, recognize the idols in our lives, and realign our worship to the one true God.

May we strive to live with hearts fully devoted to God, rejecting the counterfeit gods that promise but never deliver. Let us remember the words of the Lord in 2 Kings 17:39: "But the Lord your God you shall fear, and he will deliver you from the hand of all your enemies."

Blessings on your journey,

Torrie
