Reflect on King Solomon’s dedication of the Temple, where God’s glory filled the sanctuary as a powerful sign of His presence among His people (1 Kings 8; 2 Chronicles 5–7). Solomon’s heartfelt prayer and God’s response with fire from heaven call us to dedicate our lives as living temples, filled with the Holy Spirit through prayer and obedience (1 Corinthians 6:19). As Temples, or mobile tabernacles, we’re urged to shine as lights in a dark world, carrying the gospel and serving others with zeal. At the feast, it is time to deepen your prayer life, rededicate yourself to God, and ignite a spiritual fire that transforms you and those around you!
