1 Kings 3:3 (NKJV) 3 And Solomon loved the Lord, walking in the statutes of his father David, except that he sacrificed and burned incense at the high places.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

We need to beware of the “excepts” in our own lives.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

We may love the Lord and keep a lot of His commandments, but when there is an, except this\u00a0or except that,\u00a0we need to pay attention\u00a0and deal with it immediately.\u00a0We need to get to the root of it.<\/p>\n

We need to work extra hard to keep those \u201cexcepts\u201d out of our walk. Because\u00a0it\u2019s those very things that have a grip on us and many times keeps distance between us and God.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

In Solomon\u2019s day\u00a0these \u201dhigh\u00a0places\u201d or elevated hilltops were off limits to God\u2019s people. The pagans believed the closer they were to heaven, the greater the chance their prayer and sacrifices would reach their gods.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

We need to remember Who our God is, and that we can reach Him at any time and from anywhere.<\/p>\n

If we are in the valley or on the mountain,\u00a0if we are in a hard place or in a happy place,\u00a0our God will hear our cry and the praises from our lips.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Get rid of the “except” part of our walk, those things that bring distance between us and God, and move forward with Him in a more powerful, tight-knit, and fulfilling relationship than ever before. Amen.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
