Truth Exposed: the Temple
In 1 Kings 8 Solomon builds the Temple, and in verses 22-61 he delivers a fantastic prayer of dedication. Then, in 1 Kings 9:3, the Lord answers Solomon. Verse 3 captivated me. Why? Because that is God answering our prayer, our cry, our hungering for, the salvation of Jesus.
- Psalm 6:9.. . . . The Lord has heard my plea; the Lord accepts my prayer.
- Romans 10:10 . . . . . confessing Christ
- 1 Peter 1:15-16 . . . . . Be holy (consecrate)
- 1 Corinthians 6:19 . . . . . we are the temple
- Hebrews 13:5 . . . . . I will never leave you nor forsake you
Match up these verses with verse 3. Never forget, what happens in the O.T. in the natural happens in the N.T. in the spiritual. Always. Read 1 Kings 8 & 9 and let the truth permeate your spirit. Listen to "My Body is the Temple" on YouTube
