2 Chronicles 8: Finish the Work

Last updated on: June 26, 2013 at 9:48 am   By Dillon Burroughs

“All Solomon’s work was carried out, from the day the foundation of the temple of the Lord was laid until its completion.

Last updated on: June 26, 2013 at 9:43 am   By Dillon Burroughs

2 Chronicles 6: Unlimited God

Last updated on: June 11, 2013 at 11:32 am   By Dillon Burroughs

“But will God really dwell on earth with humans? The heavens, even the highest heavens, cannot contain you. How much less this temple I have built!”– 2 Chronicles 6:18 God is unlimited. He can reign in heaven while working on earth and even understanding every thought of every creature at the same time. Solomon recognized this truth when he prayed at the dedication of the temple. The temple was not the place where God lived, but a place where God... Read more

2 Chronicles 5: The Presence of the Lord

Last updated on: June 10, 2013 at 11:33 am   By Dillon Burroughs

“Then the temple of the Lord was filled with the cloud, 14 and the priests could not perform their service because of the cloud, for the glory of the Lord filled the temple of God.” -1 Chronicles 5:13-14 When the temple was dedicated, the cloud of God’s glory was so thick that the priests could not perform their services. I’ve wondered why God would stop his people from worshiping. Wouldn’t he want his Levites to offer sacrifices, to give him praise?... Read more

“All the objects that Huram-Abi made for King Solomon for the temple of the Lord were of polished bronze. 17 The king had them cast in clay molds in the plain of the Jordan between Sukkoth and Zarethan. 18 All these things that Solomon made amounted to so much that the weight of the bronze could not be calculated.” -2 Chronicles 4:16-18 God provided for every detail of the temple.

It was on the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite, the place provided by David.” -2 Chronicles 3:1 Location matters to God. You live where you live for a reason. You were born were you were born for a purpose. You work in the exact location you work with a reason. Even God’s temple was built... Read more
