Here’s the lessons I learned today during my time of “coffee with the Lord” from Solomon’s prayer at the dedication of the temple (1 Kings 8.22-61 – Great passage!!)…
- There is no one/no God like the Lord! He keeps His covenant and shows his steadfast covenant love to those who serve Him with all their heart!
- What God promises we can ask Him to fulfill!
- No house of worship or temple that we build could ever contain God! Heaven and the highest heaven cannot contain Him! Yet He pays attention to the prayers we pray, the pleas we make, and the cry of our hearts in places like that!! (Not only that; He makes His presence known in places like that when we honor Him!).
- God knows our hearts and when we sin, if we will acknowledge our sin and ask for forgiveness, He will hear us, forgive us, rescue us, deliver us and restore us!
Today, I make Solomon’s confession and prayer my own! “Not one word has failed of all Your good promises! … The Lord our God be with us, as He was with our fathers! May He not leave us or forsake us that He may incline our hearts to Him, to walk in all His ways!”
