What idols are standing in your way today? What items are getting in-between you and God? Time? Money? Greed? Lust? Anger? Things? These are all items/idols that can run our lives and take the place of God. It is our job through the power of Christ to destroy these idols. Not to rid ourselves of possessions and feelings, but rather to put them down a peg or two…or twenty, and most certainly to deny the evil ones. If you enjoy a certain object and a hobby or passion, by all means continue with it, but don't make it so important that it becomes your "number one." If you have ill-feelings toward someone and those feelings are getting in the way of blessing others, and following God, do your best to dismiss them entirely.
Idols are dangerous. They sneak up unexpectedly at times, and they certainly stick around if we don't do anything about it (like in-laws during the holidays) *rimshot*
