A New Era Begins (1 Kings 8)

Share a commentWhat would it be like to witness the glory of God filling the temple? In this episode of The Wisdom Journey, Stephen Davey walks through one of the most incredible moments in Israel’s history—the dedication of Solomon’s temple. As the ark of the covenant is placed inside the Holy of Holies, God’s presence descends in a cloud, confirming His approval. Solomon’s powerful prayer of dedication acknowledges God’s faithfulness, justice, and mercy. But this event is more than a historical spectacle—it reveals how God desires to dwell with His people. What does this mean for believers today? How should we approach worship and prayer in light of this event? Discover the lasting significance of this new era in Israel’s history and how it points to God’s eternal kingdom.https://www.wisdomonline.orgStephen Davey's newest book, The Disciples Prayer, is available now. https://www.wisdomonline.org/store/view/the-disciples-prayer-hardbackThe Christian's Compass is a companion study guide that corresponds to each of these lessons along The Wisdom Journey.
