MISPLACED LOVE READ: Psalm 115 Their idols are silver and gold, the work of mens hands. Psalm 115:4 Many things vie for our affection and time and attention, and it seems were always needing to evaluate where were focusing our lives. Joshua told the people of Israel that they were to give their affection and worship to God alone (Josh. 24:14). This was significant in contrast to the idols worshiped by the nation around them. These idols were made of metal and were only the work of mens hands (Ps. 115:4). They were totally powerless compared to the Lord. Therefore, Gods people were exhorted to find their security in Him and not in other gods (Judg. 10:13-16). Jesus reiterated this in His discussion of the commandments: Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind (Matt. 22:37). The Lord alone is our help and shield (Ps. 115:9). May we reserve our worship for Him. God is most worthy of our affections.
