Solomon prays (1 Kings 8:22-53). The Lord answers Solomon’s prayer (1
Kings 9:3-9). We must seek the blessing of God. Without His blessing,
all our efforts are fruitless. When our work is “in the Lord”, it is
“not in vain” (1 Corinthians 15:58). Together with work, there needs to
be prayer. We are to look to God for the blessing. As we pray to God
and work for Him, we must remember this: God is faithful - He fulfils
His promises to His people (1 Kings 8:56). When God blesses us, we must
remember to give thanks to Him. As well as praying to Him, working for
Him and thanking Him, we must make sure that we keep on living for Him
(1 Kings 8:61). At the centre of our life of obedience, there is to be
worshipping Him in His House (1 Kings 9:3).
