SPEAKING OF FAITH: What God really wants. is to enjoy our presence
(Transcribed by Myra Colgate)
Read 1 Kings 8:10 from last week’s request again.
“We thought we knew what God wants, but no, it should be all about what He wants.” emphasized Pastor Melton.
Solomon had been chosen by David to be his successor, and chosen by God to be the one to build the permanent Temple in Jerusalem. Another of David’s sons, Adonijah, had decided he would be named King, and presumptuously began to make plans for himself. David who had aged and was near the end of his life, had to be brought into the plan to stop Adonijah without creating an upheaval before Solomon’s coronation as Israel’s new king and for Solomon’s Temple completion and it’s dedication.
