In Today's One Year Playbook we see Solomon Leading the people by Praying.
As a Leader of this young nation Solomon knew that people from all over the World were hurting deep inside and depressed.
Solomon also knew that rich and powerful people needed to be humbled by this Great and Awesome Temple.
The Greatness of the Temple levels the playing field.
Solomon shows great Leadership by completing the Temple then Executing the Game Plan for God to Glorified and touch millions of people.
This Temple was a symbol of Hope and Vision for the people. A Place where God lives. A Place to get Answers for Life.
Now let's see how God responds to our Prayers.
"When Solomon finished praying, fire came down from heaven and consumed the burnt offering and the sacrifices, and the glory of the Lord filled the Temple." 1Chronicles 7:1
"Don't you realize that your body is the Temple of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and was given to you by God? You do not belong to yourself," 1Corinthians 6:19
You are the Temple of God.
Pray
-Opens up communication with God
Spiritual Fire
-God Responds with His Spiritual Fire coming down and consuming our offering.
-Our offering is Our Life and all Our Goals.
-The Fire is the Fire of Wisdom and. Direction for our lives.
Gods Glory Fills the Temple.
-In other words your life Lights up and Shines. Moses had the Shekinah Glory after he spoke to God.
Pray - Fire - Glory
Just like the Temple was a place of Hope and Answers so should we be a place of Hope and Answers for Life.
"Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have."
1Peter 3:15
Leaders Execute
Rick
