I recently watched a video of Oprah talking about her enlightenment that the bible is wrong and the preacher she was listening to was wrong because he said that God was a Jealous God. Her question was how can God be all of these things and be jealous of me.
Here is the answer. God is not jealous of you. He is jealous for you. He has done all these wonderful things for you. Yet you worship other things, money, power, career, even your family, church or yourself. He wants your full devotion.
It would be like if you raised up your child. Cared for him/her. Loved him/her. Gave him/her water and food. Clothed them. Read to them at night. And they started calling the woman down the street mom and started treating her like a mom should treated. A woman they didn't even know. Someone that they couldn't trust. Someone that didn't feed them or clothe them or rush to wash their cuts when they fell down. What would you think about that? Would you be happy about that? Or would you correct them and say that is not your mom, I'm your mom.
So if you call yourself god. Then yes God is jealous of you. You were created for worship. You will worship something. Will you worship the God that protects you, cares for you, feeds you, clothes you.
I love God. Jesus and Jesus alone is the savior of the world. He is the only Way the only truth and the only life. He said “If you abide in me, you shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free.”
Lord Jesus come quickly and show yourself as God. Reveal yourself to the world and get glory and honor for yourself.
