We see in both 1 Kings 6 and in 2 Chronicles 3 the construction of the temple. Seeing how many cubits wide or deep and how the doorposts, walls, and doors are covered with Gold, and how the cherubim are carved on the walls reveals to us a mental picture of a God of order. A God who has a plan and a set of blue prints. Do you ever feel like your life is out of control or like someone took your blue prints and shredded them? Rest assured God has a photo copier that never runs out of paper and never goes dry of toner. The plans He has for you are always ready for another copy to be printed no matter how many blue prints you feel have been torn up or shredded. As we look to the Father for our direction, His perfect plan will always be there.
You might be asking where are those blue prints for my life...Full instructions (Blue Prints) enable us to go about our work with certainty and to proceed with comfort. Thank You Lord, the scriptures are enough to guide and equip us for every good work. Remember that His plan for you is the best plan and it is a beautiful plan. Can you imagine a plan where your life is covered in gold and all sorts of ornate detail like cherubim carved into it. All our plans are unique and very detailed and are not meant to be chaotic. While we do live in a chaotic world we can find peace in an orderly God.
There is a temple even more beautiful than the one Solomon built and that is the spiritual temple God builds in each and every one of us.(See; 1 Peter 2:5 & Ephesians 2:19-22)
Blessings friends,
