Good morning, everyone!
Today I read 2 Chronicles 6-8.
Solomon completes work on the Temple. Then, he offers a prayer of dedication and God's glory comes down in a cloud to rest there. It is so powerful that the priests cannot even get near it.
God then appears to Solomon in private and promises, according to Solomon's prayer, that if His people indeed do obey Him, He will bless them, and if they sin, He will bring calamity upon them until they repent, but once they repent, He will forgive them.
It took twenty years for Solomon to complete the building of God's Temple and his own palace. Once he had done so, he built other fortified cities, and storage cities.
And Solomon kept God's commandments, and so did the people. Thus, they prospered.
I hope you'll join me tomorrow when I read 2 Chronicles 9-12.
