  • Summary

  • SHOW NOTES: In Podcast Episode 263, “What Do You Insist on Doing?” Kim discusses the dangers of turning our hearts from the Lord and insisting on our own way. As Kim shares challenging aspects of King Solomon’s life and choices, may each listener be challenged to do as Solomon said and not as he did: Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life. (Prov. 4:23) Our focal passages for this episode are 1 Kings 11:1-13 with verse 2 as the focal verse: ”The Lord had clearly instructed the people of Israel, “You must not marry them, because they will turn your hearts to their gods.” Yet Solomon insisted on loving them anyway.“ WEEKLY ASSIGNMENT FEATURE: Name and confess any sin you have continued to insist on doing. Additional Resources and Scriptures: 23 Rebellion is as sinful as witchcraft, and stubbornness as bad as worshiping idols. So because you have rejected the command of the Lord, he has rejected you as king.” (1 Samuel 15:23)Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life. (Prov. 4:23)“We start falling into sin long before we ever fall into disgrace. So if we wish to avoid our own tragic downfall, we need to fight against every little sin by the power of the Holy Spirit.” (Philip Graham Ryker) TWITTER - https://twitter.com/EOinLovingJesusINSTAGRAM - https://www.instagram.com/encouragingothersinlovingjesus/“Encouraging Others in Loving Jesus” YouTube Channel: Check it out at https://www.youtube.com/@EncouragingOthersInLovingJesus I WANT TO BEGIN A PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS CHRIST.
