God cannot use us if we have any kind of idolatry in our lives. -Adrian Rogers, Standing Firm in a Pagan World-
Model prayer to RENOUNCE IDOL WORSHIP.
The FIRST COMMANDMENT says,
Thou shalt have no other gods before me. Exodus 20:3
The SECOND COMMANDMENT says,
Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness [of any thing] that [is] in heaven above, or that [is] in the earth beneath, or that [is] in the water under the earth. Exodus 20:4
