Isaiah 44:15

The Pulpit Commentary · Joseph S. Exell and contributors · Public Domain

Then shall it be for a man to burn. The tree that has been planted, and nourished, and has grown up is naturally "for a man to burn." That is its ordinary destination; and even the idolater applies it partly to this purpose; but out of a portion he maketh a god.

The very same tree serves him both for fuel and for a divinity.
