Deuteronomy 6:14 You shall not go after other gods, the gods of the peoples who are around you—(ESV)
We can only serve one master at any given time. Anything that we put before God becomes our master. That thing then takes control of us. It can be anything. Another person, food, money, drugs, alcohol, church, or collecting cat figurines are just some examples of things that can become the masters of our lives.
When we allow our priorities to shift away from our relationship with the Lord we often will find ourselves in a position where we are serving or worshiping a new god. Our God just wants a relationship with us. He puts this first even above His relationship with His son.
