Reading through the book of 1 Samuel I came across an interesting verse in 1 Samuel 5:5 – “Therefore neither the priests of Dagon nor all who enter Dagon’s house tread on the threshold of Dagon in Ashdod to this day.” I am always amazed at the devotion of pagans to false gods! They superstitiously worship and direct their lives according to those who don’t even exist! (i.e. Muslims, Buddists, etc.)
I worship and serve the living and true God, the Creator (Genesis 1:1)! No one or anything can even begin to compare to the greatness of my God (Isaiah 57:15; 40:12-31). How devoted am I to Him? Do I worship and honor Him? Do I direct my life according to His desires? He is clearly the Living and True God (1 Samuel 5:4)!
