God is Jealous for you Oprah

Earlier this year someone sent me a video of Oprah saying she heard a pastor once say that God is a Jealous God. She didn't understand why God would be jealous of her.

Hearing that sermon caused her to fall away from church and away from Christ.

Can you blame her?

If I heard a Pastor say that God was Jealous of me, I would run too!

While listening to this song, I thought of Oprah and all those who understood that verse in the say way. The song is called "He loves Me."

Before you listen to the song, let's clear up the explanation of that phrase. The NLT translation of the Bible does a nice job of teasing out the meaning.

You must not bow down to them or worship them, for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God who will not tolerate your affection for any other gods. Exodus 20:5-NLT

He loves you so much that it breaks his heart to see His children straying away and devoting attention to other gods who want to only hurt you. He just wants to love you.




My hope for you is to encounter the love of God by meeting Jesus Christ. He gave up His life you so could spend the rest of your life experiencing the love he had planned for you since before the earth began.
