God's Redemption Story (1 Kings - Ezra)نموونە

Solomon - 4/5

Solomon acknowledged God’s faithfulness, praised God’s goodness, honored David’s legacy, worshipped God’s greatness, sought God’s favor on Israel’s behalf, and established a trust in the Lord no matter what—and that was just in his dedication of the temple.

Solomon seemed all in for God. But going all in and living it out over the long haul are two different things. I think that Solomon probably began his reign with a heart in love with God. But he held on to his desires. Women and personal pleasure were weaknesses that slowly ate away at his commitment to the Lord.

Maybe, like Solomon, you want to be all in. But have you truly given God control over your whole life, or are there still desires that you are holding on to?
