God's Redemption Story (1 Kings - Ezra)Isampula

Solomon - 5/5

With all of Israel gathered together, Solomon prayed a prayer of dedication over the newly completed temple. He asked that it would be a place where God’s people could call on His name and He would hear them.

Our modern culture perceives prayer as some complex function, as though only a pastor or priest can pray using special words in a church or ministry building. But prayer today is the same as it was in Solomon’s day. Because Jesus died on the cross and closed the gap between us and our holy God, our bodies are the temple of Christ. Anytime we want to talk to God, we just need to start talking. No fancy words, no seminary degree, no specific location. You can call out to Jesus anytime, anywhere.
