Luke 16:13 "No servant can be the slave of two masters; such a slave will hate one and love the other or will be loyal to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money."
Three points:
1. What are we a slave of?
We are all a slave of something. It may be money, food, work, not working, friends, status, looks, clothes, family, what people think of us, etc. etc.
2. People cannot be a slave of two masters.
So obvious isn't it? Only one thing can be supreme in our lives. Only one thing can have our loyalty. We push comes to shove, there will be only one left.
3. What are we a slave of?
Are we a slave of God? He is tender, loving, kind, protecting, firm, and wise. Jesus said, "Take my yoke and put it on you, and learn from me, because I am gentle and humble in spirit; and you will find rest. For the yoke I will give you is easy, and the load I will put on you is light. (Matthew 11:29-30)"
