Daily Bible Reading – March 2022: God’s Renewing Word of PrayerSampl
March 27
Introduction
Solomon succeeded his father, David, as king of Israel. Following the completion of the Temple and the housing of the Covenant Box in the Most Holy Place, Solomon speaks to the people. He tells them that the LORD has kept his promise in having Solomon build the Temple. (The construction of the Temple and bringing the Covenant Box to the Temple are described in 2 Chronicles, chapters 2–5).
Scripture Reading
2 Chronicles 6:1-11
Today’s Key Verse: 2 Chronicles 6:11
[Solomon said:] “I have placed in the Temple the Covenant Box, which contains the stone tablets of the covenant which the LORD made with the people of Israel.”
Reflect
What was Solomon’s message to the people? What promises did he speak of? In what ways have you experienced the fulfillment of God’s promises? The covenant mentioned in verse 11 refers to the covenant God made with the people of Israel on Mount Sinai (Exodus 20:1-17). How does your community of faith experience a covenant relationship with God?
Pray
God of promise, I praise you for your eternal love. May all my actions reflect your love and grace and be a sign of worship to you. Amen.
Tomorrow’s Reading
