Serving the True God

Think of the people of Israel

in Egypt long ago.

They were slaves, wanting out

desperately so.

Through Moses, God brought

mighty miracles to the land.

Promised a place of milk

& honey ever so grand.

By fire and a cloud,

God did lead.

Proving himself, he met

their every need.

They did something they

knew they shouldn’t do.

By worshiping a false God—

not the God who's true.

The promised land in which

they later enjoyed.

Was invaded by other armies

and utterly destroyed.

Perhaps you’ve forsaken

the God of the Bible.

And are worshiping a false

God or a false idol.

Return to the true God

before it’s too late.

If you don’t—like Israel—

you’ll suffer a similar fate!
