Wealth is our god.

<sup>An after thought from Deut:

35</sup> You were shown these things so that you might know that the Lord is God; besides him there is no other.

We were shown things that we know that the Lord is God. God shown us so many things. He rescued us from circumstances and was with us. These things we are to store them as treasure and remember these treasures in tough times so that we may testify the glory of God. 

Now we are in Judges. Judges is a very interesting chapter. This was the time in which Israel was on a roller coaster ride. They walk with God and walk away from God. Walk with God and walk away from God. God sent "Judges" to help the people with their walk with Chirst. But throughout Judges that is a very prominent feature of the book.
 I truely believe that this situation is excatly what we are facing right now. Especially in Singapore, where life is good. Where to fit God in the picture? We just want to do what we want?

Does it sound like us? Then you say:

¹⁰ After that whole generation had been gathered to their ancestors, another generation grew up who knew neither the Lord nor what he had done for Israel. ¹¹ Then the Israelites did evil in the eyes of the Lord and served the Baals. ¹² They forsook the Lord, the God of their ancestors, who had brought them out of Egypt. They followed and worshiped various gods of the peoples around them. They aroused the Lord’s anger ¹³ because they forsook him and served Baal and the Ashtoreths. ¹⁴ In his anger against Israel the Lord gave them into the hands of raiders who plundered them. He sold them into the hands of their enemies all around, whom they were no longer able to resist. ¹⁵ Whenever Israel went out to fight, the hand of the Lord was against them to defeat them, just as he had sworn to them. They were in great distress.

See they worship other gods what. So we do not?

We worship the god money, wealth. What good is Singapore if we are all worshipping money? I think there is no other place on earth that people worship wealth to this extent. Yes, money is important to live but remember our end state. This earth is temporary and will fade away. What is true and erternal is our God, Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus is eternal. We are all so obsessed with it. Partly because we are brought up like that, being told that to work and earn as much money as possible. This culture of worshipping wealth is so bad. 

I think if i replaced gods/Baal with weath it would really start to sound like Singapore.

If you are tired of in the cycle of being for and against Christ, do you want to surrender it? Surrender the god of wealth right now and recieve the freedom that the Lord Jesus Christ had won.
