Ever feel like you're serving God with your whole heart, but something still holds you back from complete freedom in worship?

King Asa was one of the great kings of Judah—he tore down idols, removed cult prostitutes, and even fired his own grandmother for making false gods. The Bible says "his heart was wholly devoted to the Lord all his days." But there's this one haunting line: "the high places were not taken away." These weren't just random worship sites—they represented convenience, compromise, and contamination in how God's people approached Him. Asa wanted to worship God fully, but some things were just out of his reach to destroy.
