Listen from:
The prayer goes up, in chapter 6 and the fire came down from the heavens in today’s chapter. This proved that God had accepted Solomon’s prayer. What an experience. The glory of the Lord filled the house. Take a minute to read what similarly happened when a woman poured some perfume on the Lord’s feet a week before He went to the cross (John 12:33Then took Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the odor of the ointment. (John 12:3)).
V.1 The Lord, by this event, gives a direct evidence of His acceptance of the sacrifice, the building and the prayer.
V.3 Beautiful result, worship to God.
V.6-9 The Lord and His goodness were the center of their thoughts and sacrifices.
V.10 The people returned home satisfied and happy. Are we?
V.12-22 The Lord lays the full responsibility on Solomon. The more we know the more responsible we are to live what we do know of the teaching of the Bible; and the more we live what we have learned, then God will teach us more and more and yet more — there’s no limit! Read Luke 8:1818Take heed therefore how ye hear: for whosoever hath, to him shall be given; and whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he seemeth to have. (Luke 8:18) to see for yourself.
