So today, we had another successful siege. I started praying in authority over the idols of convienience and selfishness, and got this phrase, “Bow down, you lesser gods,” and thought about when the Ark was brought into the house of Dagon, and the idol couldn’t stay standing. He just keeps falling over (1 Sam 5). I then began to journal. And here is what came out:
Bow Down, You Lesser Gods.
Bow down, you lesser gods
Bow down before the Lord our God.
Your authority over this land is naught.
Your influence is weak,
Your strength, none.
For our Lord is God above all.
Our Lord is God of all gods.
King of all Kings.
Ruler over all things.
Remove yourselves from your pedestals.
Come down from your high places,
And bow before the Lord.
Selah.
We once had allegiance with you,
But that is no more.
The covenant is broken,
And we are now enemies.
A new covenant has been made with Christ,
The Lord of all.
We pledge ourseves to Him,
And deny our desires for sinful things.
Convenience and selfish gain are no longer our goals,
but becoming like our Lord is our reason for life.
Loving our maker is the purpose of our being.
We worship him, the source of our love.
Bow down before Him you idols, you lesser gods.
