“Little children, keep yourselves from idols.” — 1 John 5:21

Because Scripture doesn’t define idols the way culture does. It doesn’t limit them to physical objects. It exposes the heart.

An idol is anything that replaces Him.

There are signs.
1. You fear losing it more than you fear losing God.
- You say you trust Him.
But when the thought of losing that thing your peace collapses.
Your chest tightens. Your identity shakes.
- And suddenly God isn’t enough.

2. It controls your decisions, even when you know what God said.
- You justify it. You delay obedience.
You negotiate with truth. And you choose it.
- Not because you don’t know. But because you don’t want to let go.

3. Your emotions rise and fall based on it, not on God.
- It’s not just affecting you…
It’s defining you.
And your peace is constantly breaking…

4. You sacrifice for it more than you sacrifice for God.
- You’ll stay up late for it.
Rearrange your life for it.
Protect it at all costs.
- But when it comes to God?
You delay. You give what’s left. Not what’s first.

“They exchanged the truth of God for a lie… and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator.” — Romans 1:25

Keep yourselves from idols!

A happy, healthy and lasting relationship is possible.
Happiness is a by-product that requires effort and time.
No amount of success can compensate for failure in the home.
We are inviting all couples; newly wed, married, unmarried, and living together. This seminar is for you!

Today not tomorrow, now not later!
• The Pharaoh who ruled Egypt was a man who repeated his mistakes over and over again and got pretty comfortable in his misery.
EXODUS 8 God sends frogs to Egypt.
- The people can’t lie down to sleep because their bed is covered with frogs.
- They can’t eat because frogs are everywhere in their kitchens.
Finally Pharaoh calls for Moses and Aaron and says, “Ask your God to take the frogs away!”
• Moses says, “When do you want me to do that?”
• And Pharaoh in the hardness of his heart says, “Tomorrow.”

• He preferred to sleep with the frogs one more night, than to humble himself, repent and learn from his mistakes.

Let us not get comfortable in our misery!

(Rom. 8:38-39) For I am persuaded…
I believe people do not fail because of difficulty they just quit too soon.
You have no right to anything you have not pursued.
Success is largely a matter of holding on after others have let go.
- Winners simply do what losers don't want to do.
- Always remember that many of the world's great failures did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.
- We rate success by what people finish, not by what they started.

The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their God-given dreams.
Remember that God is still working in you for you are his work in progress, a masterpiece for his glory.
God won't give up on you!
So don't you give up on God!
Be persuaded!
Pursue!
