Solomon, the king of wisdom, offers some timeless and strong counsel about approaching God with reverence and authenticity. This passage from Ecclesiastes urges us to guard our steps when entering God’s house, emphasizing listening over hasty speech, thoughtless vows, and flippant commitments to God. Certain types of people live in a fantasy land with God, and they often forget that God is in heaven, and we are on earth, so our worship should be marked by sober thinking, humility and awe. In this message, we reflect on the importance of thoughtful devotion, the weight of our words, and the call to live with integrity before a holy God, trusting His wisdom over fleeting human pursuits and empty dreams.
