Bible Story: Solomon & the Temple of God
Scripture: 1 Chronicles 28—29
Bible Truth: Now that peace has come to Israel, Solomon builds a house for God.
Where is Jesus: 1 Corinthians 3:16–17
Solomon was commissioned by God to build the temple. The temple would be the place where God’s presence would dwell. All of worship would revolve around the temple. This temple was only a shadow of another temple, our hearts. Paul draws the connection in 1 Corinthians 3:16–17: “Do you know that you are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in you? If anyone destroys God’s temple, God will destroy him. For God’s temple is holy, and you are that temple.”
The temple of Solomon would be filled with the presence of God. Now as believers we are also filled with the Spirit of Christ.
Solomon was chosen by God to build the temple because he was a man of peace (1 Chronicles 22:9–10). David was not permitted to build God’s house because he was a man of war. One day the king would come who would reign on the throne of Solomon forever. This king, Jesus, would build God a house—the church. Of the increase of his peace there would be no end (Isaiah 9:7). God chose Solomon, a man of peace, to point forward to the Prince of Peace (Isaiah 9:6).
