THE SEED
And Solomon brought up the daughter of Pharaoh, out of the city of David unto the house that he had built for her: for he said, my wife shall not dwell in the house of David king of Israel, because the places are holy. 2nd Chronicles 8:11.
Solomon married the daughter of Pharaoh against the commandment of God to Israel about marriage. His fame had gone throughout the whole world, known for extraordinary wisdom, knowledge and understanding having built a temple for God and receiving accolades from all parts of the world. However, in the midst of all these glory, he disobeyed the commandment of God given to Israel never to marry foreigners. It was not recorded that God complained about this step which led him to marrying many more foreign women. Yet, he fell from grace. He started serving idols instead of the God of Israel. Many times, when we disobey God and don’t hear or see him complain, we take it for granted or approval of our deed and see it as nothing. This leads us into falling into the worst sins. It is written that the one the Lord loves, he chastens. Hebrew 12:6. So, when God is quiet about our sin, we should rather be worried, because it means we have drifted away from His love, which eventually will not end well. Psalm 119:67.

PRAYER: Oh Lord, help me to walk in your will all the days of my life, and to never take you for granted in Jesus mighty name.
