Read psalms 135:15-18  These 4 verses are pretty funny.  Yet, the subject that they are talking is not very funny.  The subject is idols.  The idols that King David was talking about in these 4 verses are different that the idols that we have today.  King David said that the idols were made of silver and gold, but they were made by people.  Isn't it strange that someone would make an idol and then worship the thing that they had just made?  That is not very smart.  And then the idols themselves were not very smart.  In verse 16, King David said that they had mouths, but they couldn't do what?  The idols had eyes, but they couldn't do what?  Verse 17 said that they had ears, but what couldn't they do?  Our verse finally says that the idols weren't even real, because there was no breath in their mouth.  They just sat there and couldn't do anything!.  Yet people worshiped them just as if they were real.  Today we have different idols.  Our idols take up our time.  Some people may worship the idol of sports.  They spend all of their time watching or playing sports.  Their idol is the idol of sports.  Other people may worship the idol of video games.  They spend all of their time playing video games.  Some people may worship the idol of television.  They spend all of their time on the couch watching T.V.  There isn't anything wrong with sports or video games or just relaxing, but when these waste so much of your time, they are an idol.  Can you think of another idol that is a time waster today?  But in the 10 commandments we are told to have no other gods before the true God of the universe.  When something takes the place of the God who created everything, that is a false god - that is an idol!  Don't forget the warning about idols and the people who make them in verse 18, "They that make them are like unto them."  If the idols are foolish, what are the people who worship them?  If the idols are silly, what are the people who worship them?  If the idols just sit around and can't do anything for themselves, what are the people who worship them?  Don't let anything take the place of the true God of creation!  Put God first in your life and you'll never be sorry that you did!
