Dealing with Idols

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Idols in our lives are like the spirit of slavery, when Moses led the Israelites out of Egypt they desired above the Promised Land the servant hood to Egyptians. They said to him, we were fed with onions, melons and leeks which were not theirs but belonged to the Egyptians or the devil in short, for they served foreign gods. It mean they were satisfied with seeing the great things of the Egyptian and being given the rejects of the onions and leeks were satisfied with the little that was of the abundance that did not belong to them. It means Israel in slavery got used to admiring and growing other people's things. They did not get used to building or erecting anything that is theirs. They did not want to build their own big houses, even when they were fed with manna from heaven, though heavenly and superior to human food, they desired flesh and melons. For whatever was rightfully theirs, they attached it to inferiority as the inferiors of Egypt. They failed to see themselves as giants of the land of Canaan. They desired flesh of this world instead of manna from heaven so they became a burden not just to themselves but even to Moses their leader. Numbers 11:10-14/KJV Then Moses heard the people weep throughout their families, every man in the door of his tent: and the anger of the LORD was kindled greatly; Moses also was displeased. And Moses said unto the LORD, Wherefore hast thou afflicted thy servant? And wherefore have I not found favour in thy sight, that thou layest the burden of all this people upon me? Have I conceived all this people? have I begotten them, that thou shouldest say unto me, Carry them in thy bosom, as a nursing father beareth the sucking child, unto the land which thou swarest unto their fathers? Whence should I have flesh to give unto all this people? for they weep unto me, saying, Give us flesh, that we may eat. I am not able to bear all this people alone, because it is too heavy for me. The slave mentality does not just burden the bearer but even their leader. It teaches one to be a parasite, to be dependent on their leader even for things they can do themselves. It taught the Israelites not to set traps and catch food but rather look unto Moses, this is a spirit that must be dealt with and cast out of any congregation of Christ, we must not build idols of hope or providence to ourselves or our brothers. We are not to idolise our leaders or our provision. For when we build idols for our provision or faith we fail to focus on God because we know there is something between you and God. They used to being fed and limited to their masters' provision. They were the left over specialists of Egypt and so it settled in them that they are not supposed to have but rather to be parasites of their masters. They did not want to build their own church, their own houses, and their own societies but wanted to be slaves and be temporary occupants of everything. Even now a church that does not want to grow and become does the same thing. They do not read the word for themselves but depend on the pastor. They do not want the signs to follow them but their pastor. They do not want to give birth to the young but their pastor and so it is all about their pastor and they end up idolising him/her and so make him an idol that diverts them from God.
