We need to stop treating God like He’s our personal "good luck charm" 🛑

I read 1 Samuel 4 today, and it’s a massive wake-up call for modern Christianity. Israel was losing a war, so they decided to march the Ark of the Covenant onto the battlefield. They didn't repent. They didn't ask God what He wanted. They just treated the holiest object on earth like a magic rabbit's foot, assuming God would be forced to give them victory if they paraded His box around. Instead, God let 30,000 of them die, and He let the Philistines capture the Ark. It hit me hard. How often do we do this? We live however we want, but then we throw Jesus' name on our businesses, our politics, or our problems, expecting Him to bless our mess like He's a cosmic vending machine. God is sovereign. He will not be manipulated into endorsing our agendas. #HardTruth #SovereignGod #ChristianLiving #NoIdols #WakeUpChurch
