    Solomon’s Prayer at the

    Dedication of the Temple


    In the beginning God created the
    heavens and the earth
     So God created
    man in his own
    image, in the image
    of God he created
    him; male and
    female he created
    them.
     God saw all that he
    had made and it
    was very good.
    Genesis 1:27,31
    Expelled from Garden of Eden

     After God drove the


    man out of the
    Garden of Eden, he
    placed on the east
    side of the Garden of
    Eden cherubim and a
    flaming sword
    flashing back and
    forth to guard the way
    to the tree of life.
    Genesis 3:23
    Covenant with Abraham

     I will make you into a


    great nation and I will
    bless you.
     I will bless those who
    bless you.
     And all peoples on
    earth will be blessed
    through you.
     Your offspring will be
    as countless as the
    stars of the heavens
     Genesis 12:2, 15:5
    Calling of Moses

     God said to
    Moses,
    I Am who I Am.

     This is what
    you are to say
    to the Israelites:
    I Am has sent
    me to you
    Exodus 3:14-15
    Moses went up to God

     And God spoke all


    these words:
    I Am the Lord your God
    who brought you out of
    Egypt, out of the land of
    slavery.
     Make this tabernacle
    and all its furnishings
    exactly like the pattern I
    will show you.
     Exodus 20:1, 25:9
    Moses sets up the Tabernacle
     The Israelites had done all the work just as the Lord had
    commanded Moses.
     Moses inspected the work and saw that they had done it just as
    the Lord had commanded. So Moses blessed them.
    Moses sets up the Tabernacle

     Then the cloud covered


    the Tent of Meeting and
    the glory of the Lord
    filled the tabernacle.
     Moses could not enter
    the Tent of Meeting
    because the cloud had
    settled upon it and the
    glory of the Lord filled
    the tabernacle.
    Exodus 40:34-35
    King David plans to build a
    Temple for the Name of the Lord

     David said: here I am


    living in a palace of
    cedar while the ark of
    God remains in a tent.

     God said: your offspring


    is the one who will build
    a house for my Name
    and I will establish his
    kingdom for ever.
    2 Samuel 7:2, 7:13
    King Solomon builds a Temple for
    the Name of the Lord
     Solomon began to build the temple of the Lord
    in Jerusalem on Mount Moriah. 2 Chronicles 3:1
    Solomon’s Prayer of Dedication.

    Solomon prays to God:


     keeps his covenant promises.
     kept his promises to King David.
     promised that His Name would dwell in the
    Temple.
     when sin is confessed at the Temple that
    God would forgive those sins.
     That people of all nations would hear of
    God and honour Him.
     That God would always hear those who
    call to Him.

    God replies to Solomon:


     I have heard your prayer
     I have consecrated the Temple and put my
    Name there for ever.
     My eyes and my heart will always be there.

    1 Kings 8 and 2 Chronicles 6


    King Solomon builds a Temple for
    the Name of the Lord

     Then the temple of the Lord was filled with cloud and the
    priests could not perform their service because of the cloud
    for the glory of the Lord filled the temple of God. 1 Kings 8:10
    The Way, the Truth and the Life

     Jesus answered, I am the


    way the truth and the life.
     No-one comes to the Father
    except through me.
    John 14:6
    From Paradise lost
    to Paradise regained.
     Therefore brothers, since we have
    confidence to enter the Most Holy
    Place by the blood of Jesus, by a new
    and living way opened for us through
    the curtain, that is by his body, and
    since we have a great priest over the
    house of God, let us draw near to God.

    • Let us hold unswervingly to the


    hope we profess, for he who
    promised is faithful.
    Hebrews 10:19,10:23
