Judges 10:13
Yet ye have forsaken me, and served other gods: wherefore I will deliver you no more.
Here don’t get confused with other gods as only “idols”, but understand the seriousness of the verse wherein it says “served other gods”. Other gods may wary from money to materialistic possession to loving a person so much that you keep him above our True God. Jesus knows our heart inside out (John 2:25). What matters is what is inside our heart and not what we speak from our mouth; that’s why we always say “our actions speak louder than words”. Whatever is in our heart ultimately our deeds will be according to that only and not what we speak. When we give our life to Jesus; confession through the mouth isn’t enough. One should adhere to his commandments and act upon those to ultimately attain salvation. What is the use of accepting him verbally and still keeping the money as the priority in your heart? For Jesus to work in you; you should first of all surrender to him fully.
