Day 22 - Jealous for His Glory - Exodus 20:5

 Day 22

 Jealous for His Glory

Exodus 20:5 (KJV): "Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me."



Abba Father, in the name of Jesus, in reverence, we come before You, acknowledging the profound truth expressed in Exodus 20:5, "Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me."

Lord, Your jealousy is a reflection of Your infinite love and desire for a devoted relationship with us. As we contemplate this commandment, we recognize the significance of wholehearted devotion to You and the consequences of turning away from Your love.

Forgive us, Lord, for any moments where we have allowed other things to take precedence in our lives over our love and commitment to You. Create in us a steadfast heart that seeks only to worship and serve You, acknowledging Your rightful place as the one true God.

May our love for You be unwavering, and may our lives reflect a devotion that spans generations, passing down a legacy of faithfulness. Protect us from the lure of false idols and guide us into a deeper understanding of Your jealous love.

In the name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior, we pray. Amen.
