"And Solomon, my son, get to know the God or your ancestors. Worship and serve him with your whole heart and with a willing mind. For the lord sees every heart and understands and knows every plan and thought. If You seek him, You will find him. But if You forsake him, he will reject You for ever. So take this seriously. The lord has chosen You to build a temple as his sanctuary. Be strong and do the work."
– 1 Chronicles 28:9-10
“Be strong and courageous and do the work. Don’t be afraid or discouraged by the size of the task for the Lord God, my God, is with You. He will not fail You or forsake You. He will see to it that all the work related to the temple of the Lord is finished correctly.” – 1 Chronicles 28:20
“Then David praised the Lord…Yours oh Lord, is the greatness, the power, the glory, the victory, and the majesty. Everything in the heavens and on earth is yours. Oh Lord, and this is your kingdom…we are here for only a moment, visitor and strangers in the land as our ancestors were before us. Our days on earth are like a shadow, gone so soon without a trace…I know, my God, that You examine our hearts and rejoice when You find integrity there…and they knelt before the Lord and the king.” – 1 Chronicles 29:11-20
God, make me like David…authority, integrity, power and influence! Your kingdom is here, come and rule in all Your glory!
