Joshua 24:2-4 And worshiped other gods

 2And Joshua said to all the people, “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘Long ago your fathers, including Terah the father of Abraham and Nahor, lived beyond the Euphrates and worshiped other gods. 3But I took your father Abraham from beyond the Euphrates and led him through all the land of Canaan, and I multiplied his descendants. I gave him Isaac, 4and to Isaac I gave Jacob and Esau. I gave Esau Mount Seir to possess, but Jacob and his sons went down to Egypt.

And Worshiped Other gods.

“We don’t often think of Joshua as a prophet, but here he spoke as an inspired messenger of God. Prophecy is not necessarily a prediction of the future. It can simply be a uniquely direct and spontaneous word from God.” (Guzik)

“Before God challenged Israel, He reminded them of His faithfulness. His goodness was shown at the very beginning of His dealings with Abraham and Abraham’s descendants.” (Guzik)

The Lord took Abraham from his home country because of they worshiped other gods. But Abraham had the faith to do what the Lord said!

Are we worshiping other gods? If Jesus isn’t the center of your life then you have put another god in His place! 

Is the Lord calling out to you like Abraham to get up a leave your sinful surroundings?
