1 Chronicles 15:13
For because ye did it not at the first, the Lord our God made a breach upon us, for that we sought him not after the due order.
There is a way to seek God that offends Him. The first commandment teaches us that there is only one God to be sought and the second commandment teaches us that He will not be found in any or every way. He has declared how He desires to be pursued. He has given us insight into how to worship and acknowledge Him and attempts made outside His orders are not considered on the merits of their sentiments, but are rejected on the basis of their rebellion.
God has not been unclear in His commands. He has not made this command beyond our comprehension or capability. He has provided clarity and continuity.
When we breach His clear commands, He makes a breach upon us. When we seek Him outside of due order, we invite disaster upon our heads. We do not lift up His Name, but we call down curses upon ourselves. We are not free to worship God however we feel like if we expect that worship to be accepted. The worship that God receives is in keeping with His orders and follows them in due order.
