"Have an Undivided Heart" from 1 Kings 11

Do you want to get married someday?

But if there's someone who has another lover would you want that person?

Jesus wants us to love only one and we can't serve two masters. Mr. Wisdom (Solomon) fail in this area. Solomon loved so many women from different nations, foreign wives. In which God warns him not to intermarry with. The Lord knows Solomon specially his witnesses. The word for today we should not be unequally yoke.

God knows our plans.

For us we need to continue to depend to God.

1 Corinthians 15:23 But each in his own turn: Christ, the firstfruits; then, when he comes, those who belong to him.


Solomon had the total of 1000 (wives and concubines) which lead him astray. We need to be careful with our God.

Whenever you feel cold in our relationship with God asks and pray to let God help you.

The Lord doesn't care how many times you go to church but God looks at your heart.

Solomon commit the same mistake as his father did but David recognizes his sin and repented.

Solomon didn't follow the Lord completely. Just imagine that Mr. Wisdom (whom God gave a gift of wisdom) can fall into the same mistake his father did, how much more for us? Never assume that you can't fall always be on guard.

Even if we watched movies we must be aware and careful. Seek God's word to help us not to have Undivided heart.

What was in David's heart?

Only for God.

And what was in Solomon's heart?

Is was undivided until he fall away from God.

Sometimes our hearts are divided then we need to go back to the basic things like to seek God first.

Nice Christian Life Experiences

Notes from Mark 13:14-27

Mark 13:14-27 New International Version (NIV) 14 “When you see ‘the abomination that causes desolation’[a] standing where it[b] does not belong—let the reader understand—then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. 15 Let no one on the housetop go down or enter the house to take anything out. 16 Let no one in the field go back to get their cloak. 17 How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers! 18 Pray that this will not take place in winter, 19 because those will be days of distress unequaled from the beginning, when God created the world, until now—and never to be equaled again. 20 “If the Lord had not cut short those days, no one would survive. But for the sake of the elect, whom he has chosen, he has shortened them. 21 At that time if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Messiah!’ or, ‘Look, there he is!’ do not believe it. 22 For false messiahs and false prophets will appear and perform signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even

Mark 13:32-37

Mark 13:32-37 New International Version (NIV) The Day and Hour Unknown 32 “But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. 33 Be on guard! Be alert[a]! You do not know when that time will come. 34 It’s like a man going away: He leaves his house and puts his servants in charge, each with their assigned task, and tells the one at the door to keep watch. 35 “Therefore keep watch because you do not know when the owner of the house will come back—whether in the evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows, or at dawn. 36 If he comes suddenly, do not let him find you sleeping. 37 What I say to you, I say to everyone: ‘Watch!’”
