Year of the Bible: Part Five of Twelve Sýnishorn

Solomon Builds a House for God

God would not allow David to build the temple because he was a "man of blood." Instead, Solomon stepped up to the plate and did it, dedicating the house as a place for God's glory to dwell.

Each time a tent or temple was built for God, it was a place where God's presence touched the earth. Today's video vividly illustrates why God wanted heaven to touch the world. It prophetically pointed toward a future when His presence would follow everywhere His followers went, a time when we would become the temple of God, His physical dwelling place, and the exact location where heaven invades earth.

Question: What response do you have when thinking about being the house where God's presence lives?

Prayer: Ask God how He wants you to make His presence known to your neighbors and others you meet this week.

See You Next Month: Part six of twelve starts on the 1st. We hope to see you there, don't forget to start the plan and create your daily reminder.
