Destroy the idols among you. (Joshua 24:23)

Joshua 24:23

New Living Translation (NLT)

²³ “All right then,” Joshua said, “destroy the idols among you, and turn your hearts to the Lord, the God of Israel.”

Joshua told the Israelites to throw away their foreign gods, or idols. To follow God requires destroying whatever gets in the way of worshiping Him. We have our own form of idols - greed, wrong priorities, jealousies, prejudices - that get in the way of worshiping God. God is not satisfied if we merely hide these idols. We must completely remove them from our lives.
