Under Gods Command
Joshua 24:23 “Now then,” said Joshua, “throw away the foreign gods that are among you and yield your hearts to the LORD, the God of Israel.”
Joshua told the Israelites to throw away their foreign gods, or idols. To follow God requires destroying whatever gets in the way of worshiping him. We have our own form of idols greed, wrong priorities, jealousies, prejudices that get in the way of worshiping God. God is not satisfied if we merely hide these idols. We must completely remove them from our lives.
