If there is one thing I am sure of, it is that one of the things that displeases God is that they worship anyone other than Him; If we analyze this, it was one of the causes that poured out the wrath of God on the people of Israel, who after having seen the power and glory of God still doubted, continued to seek refuge in other things and especially not He worshiped God for the love and mercy he had with them.

We are often like that, we make those same mistakes, we have seen the power of God manifest in our lives, in the people around us, we have even witnessed the glory of God and yet we dare to doubt our calling, the powerful things that He can do in us. We fail when we are blessed in some way and we boast in saying that what we have achieved is by ourselves, we do not recognize that God was the one who put his powerful hand for us, we do not give him the merit he deserves. ¨ Do not ever think: This wealth is the fruit of my power and the strength of my hands. Remember the Lord your God, because it is he who gives you the power to produce that wealth; thus he has confirmed today the covenant that he made under oath with your ancestors. "Deuteronomy 8: 17-18 (New International Version)
On the other hand, when we are searching for solutions, answers, direction, we look for any place less in front of the presence of God, we look for prophetic words, promises, that are revealed to other people, we resort to men or money thinking that these will solve our problems , let me tell you that only by worshiping God do you find a solution and a word of encouragement; the word is very precise when it says: "Cry out to me, and I will answer you, and I will show you great and hidden things that you do not know" Jeremiah 33: 3 (Reina -Varela 1960). You have to cry out to God alone, to anyone else, and look at everything that promises to teach you, there are many great and hidden things, only He knows and we will not know if we do not seek Him.
Do not look for refuges or solutions in others, your questions will only be answered by God because only He knows the plan that He has for you, therefore He will give you advice that will lead you to victory, although sometimes you do not understand, do not see exit, believe Him , adore him, do not ignore his power, his majesty, his presence, let's put aside the false and momentary shelters, which are taken away by any storm wind, remember God give him the first place in your life, place him above all your family, of yourself, give him a chance for him to act and dedicate him the time he deserves.
¨Glorious in his Holy Name; rejoice the hearts of those who seek Jehovah. Seek Yahweh and his power, always seek his face.
Psalm 105: 3-4 (Reina-Valera 1960).
@arcadedios, , one of the errors of the Christian is to take refuge where he should not if God is our priority obviously that we should take refuge in Him.
