What a Jealous God We Serve

Text: Det 4:24-29

Satan is jealous and envious of God.

The cause of Gods Jealousy
A. He created us - vs. 24, 32 - God, Judge, Creator

  • People do not accept God because they don't want to be judged.
  • Isaiah 43:1 -  He created us - The Trinity
  • God took the time to form us individually
B. He cleanses us - vs. 23
  • Genesis 12-15 (Abraham doughts the path)
  • God kept his covenant with Abraham.
  • John 3 (we are condemned already when we are born.)
  • God is jealous God because he forgives us of our sin and we run right to it... Again, again, and again.
  • Isaiah 43:1b, 11, 14, 25.
C. He cares for us Isaiah 43:18-20
  • GOD PROVIDES, not satan.
The competition for our affection.
A. The competition is inferior - Ex 20:3-5
  • Pay attention to the Capital G in God, the lower g in god means other god's that are not higher than him he is the only one.
  • God is omnission, omnipresent (everywhere) you can't fool God.
B. The competition is Iniquitous - vs. 24-25
  • Satan is out to destroy you, your marriage, your children...
  • He is an expert at glimpse & glamour... Prov 6:27
The consequences of our unfaithful nest - James 4:4
A. On the Seducer - Nah 1:2
B. On the Saved - Ex 2:5
  • (If you are giving to serve other gods, you hate him)
  • You have to work and fight for your victory even if you are the 3rd, 4th generation.
  • You don't need to be perfect just your compassion and you need to care.
God's compassion toward the repentant - vs. 29-31
  • Hosea & Gomer Story
