Every relationship must have boundaries. God provides us with His boundaries in the 10 commandments. Out the gate, I mean number one He says......I AM NUMBER ONE. I AM YOUR PRIORITY! He makes it clear.
I have learned that anything or anyone that you allow even close to that God place in your heart... well....He...will...never...allow it. It has often been my prayer, Lord please remove any god in my life that wants to take your place. The greatest sin is idolatry.
Yes, the greatest sin is spending more time with, or loving, or needing something or someone more than Him. We are to live in and for God. In fact the scriptures remind us that obedience to God is better than sacrifice.
Before Jesus perfect sacrifice, animal sacrifice/blood was used to remove the stain of sin but now there is no longer a need for that. Jesus secured forever with His blood all the sacrifice we will ever need. He is now asking us to be a living sacrifice and live for Him.
