Too often, we come to God with selfish motives—using worship, words, and promises to get what they want rather than to honor Him.

True worship means remembering who God is: He’s in heaven, we’re on earth. Our words should be few, our hearts sincere, and our promises genuine.

Solomon warns us to approach God with honesty, reverence and humility, not carelessness or manipulation; ready to listen to what He says.
