It is always a good idea to take in information, but an even better idea to apply what you have learned to your life. But often that will require that you slow down and take a good, close look at your life. Below are a few questions that will help you both process and apply what you have learned about taking full vengeance on your sins and idols that are a part of your life. This is your time to introspect. Take a moment to look within.
- When we don't take full vengeance on our gods and sin, we actually create an environment in which they will be allowed to grow up in us. Are you nourishing your weeds, or are you pulling them up and destroying them?
- What influence do your gods and sin have on your spiritual growth?
- God wanted the Israelites to eradicate all foreign gods from their lives by taking FULL vengeance on them. What does God want you to do with your identified gods and sin?
- There were severe consequences for Israel when the disobeyed God and kept the foreign gods alive by sparing (giving life to) the woman who were so idolatrous. Are you willing to find out what God's consequences will be for you if you choose to let your gods and sins live, instead of destroying them? Do you think that you are' bullet-proof'?
- Why does God discipline us when we disobey? How do your gods and sin affect your holiness?
It is time to pull up the weeds in your life that are choking out Holy Spirit within you and holiness and purity He longs to bring into your life . Weeds that are left alone will eventually take over an entire beautiful garden of flowers!
