1 Kings 8
60 “Then people all over the earth will know that the Lord alone is God and there is no other. 61 And may you be completely faithful to the Lord our God. May you always obey his decrees and commands, just as you are doing today.”
As Solomon concludes his prayer during the dedication of the Temple, he has some interesting thoughts. Too bad, he didn’t follow his own advice (but that is jumping ahead in the story). It is my responsibility as a Christ follower to be obedient to the Word of God. It is my responsibility to live my life in such a manner as to give God the glory and the praise forever. I have no right to ask anything of God. He has already given me my salvation in Christ Jesus; what else could I possibly ask of Him? May I be faithful to His call upon my life to go, make disciples, baptizing them, and teaching them to obey God’s Word.

Covenant Prayer
1 Kings 8
23b “O Lord, God of Israel, there is no God like you in all of heaven above or on the earth below. You keep your covenant and show unfailing love to all who walk before you in wholehearted devotion.”
Just as Solomon prayed during the dedication of the Temple, so I want to pray every day. There is no god like the LORD God Almighty! I pray for His unfailing love to cover me, and for me to remember my covenant vow to love, serve, and worship only Him all the days of my life!
