You Are God's Treasured Possession — So Tear Down What Competes With Him

Apr 26, 2026    Joel Hastings

What does it look like to actually live like you belong to God? In Deuteronomy 7, Moses calls Israel to enter the Promised Land and destroy everything that would pull their hearts away from God. Pastor Joel Hastings digs into one of the Bible's harder passages — and unpacks why it's actually some of the best news you'll hear.


Joel walks through the call to radical holiness, the danger of modern-day idols, and the stunning reason God chose Israel in the first place: not because they were strong, impressive, or deserving — but simply because he loved them. That same unconditional love is the foundation for everything God asks of us.


Here's a couple key takeaways

• God's love for you is not based on your performance — you can't earn it, and you can't lose it. His love is rooted entirely in who he is.

• Anything that competes with God in your heart is an idol — and if you don't tear it down, it will tear down your life.

• Because you are God's treasured possession, you are called to be different — to live set apart in a way that reflects whose you are.
