Ecclesiastes 5:1 – 3 Guard your steps when you go to the house of God. To draw near to listen is better than to offer the sacrifice of fools, for they do not know that they are doing evil. Be not rash with your mouth, nor let your heart be hasty to utter a word before God, for God is in heaven and you are on earth. Therefore let your words be few. For a dream comes with much business, and a fool’s voice with many words.

Good instruction from the author here. “When you go to the house of God” – he is speaking to believers, people who go to church, to worship. I hope we are “going to worship” and not just “going to church” on Sunday mornings. God has much to say and we must be slow to speak and quick to listen to His word. “He is in heaven and we are on earth” – this is excellent perspective. I pray our hearts and minds are right as we enter into worship – He knows where we are at and is not impressed with empty words and false motives. Because we are the temple and we worship everywhere as NT believers, this has much wider scope. All that we do viz. eat, drink, sleep, should be done in worship to His glory. God is seeking people who worship Him in spirit and in truth – let that be said of us today.
