Isaiah 2:17-19

Proud men will be humiliated, arrogant men will be brought low; the Lord alone will be exalted in that day. The worthless idols will be completely eliminated. They will go into caves in the rocky cliffs and into holes in the ground, trying to escape the dreadful judgment of the Lord and his royal splendor, when he rises up to terrify the earth.

James 1:13-14, “When tempted, no one should say, “God is tempting me.” For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; but each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed.” I’ve had quite enough of temptation rising up and shouting, “Hey, look at that” or “Why don’t you consider serving these other gods?” That’s part of the deal though: turning away from temptation and resting in the sufficiency of God’s grace and forgiveness in Christ Jesus. I’m looking forward to the day when “idols completely disappear.” The day is coming when the Lord alone will be exalted. Unfortunately, not everyone is looking forward to that day, and there’s going to be lots of scrambling going on. Idols are crushed in the “terror of the Lord and the glory of his majesty”. Worship the Lord God alone.
