[10]Take heed now; for the LORD hath chosen thee to build an house for the sanctuary: be strong, and do it.

[11]Then David gave to Solomon his son the pattern of the porch, and of the houses thereof, and of the treasuries thereof, and of the upper chambers thereof, and of the inner parlours thereof, and of the place of the mercy seat,

[12]And the pattern of all that he had by the spirit, of the courts of the house of the LORD, and of all the chambers round about, of the treasuries of the house of God, and of the treasuries of the dedicated things:

[13]Also for the courses of the priests and the Levites, and for all the work of the service of the house of the LORD, and for all the vessels of service in the house of the LORD.

[14]He gave of gold by weight for things of gold, for all instruments of all manner of service; silver also for all instruments of silver by weight, for all instruments of every kind of service:

[15]Even the weight for the candlesticks of gold, and for their lamps of gold, by weight for every candlestick, and for the lamps thereof: and for the candlesticks of silver by weight, both for the candlestick, and also for the lamps thereof, according to the use of every candlestick.

[16]And by weight he gave gold for the tables of shewbread, for every table; and likewise silver for the tables of silver:

[17]Also pure gold for the fleshhooks, and the bowls, and the cups: and for the golden basons he gave gold by weight for every bason; and likewise silver by weight for every bason of silver:

[18]And for the altar of incense refined gold by weight; and gold for the pattern of the chariot of the cherubims, that spread out their wings, and covered the ark of the covenant of the LORD.

[19]All this, said David, the LORD made me understand in writing by his hand upon me, even all the works of this pattern.

[20]And David said to Solomon his son, Be strong and of good courage, and do it: fear not, nor be dismayed: for the LORD God, even my God, will be with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee, until thou hast finished all the work for the service of the house of the LORD.

[21]And, behold, the courses of the priests and the Levites, even they shall be with thee for all the service of the house of God: and there shall be with thee for all manner of workmanship every willing skilful man, for any manner of service: also the princes and all the people will be wholly at thy commandment…………………..

A. King David gave Solomon the task of building a temple for God (Building a beautiful place for God was an important job. God

gives you important job to do too and He wants you to do your best (Colossians 3:23).

B. Like his father David, Solomon wanted to build a temple to honour God for what God had done.

God had protected, provided and guided Israel for many years. David built himself a beautiful palace of cedar, and he wanted God and Solomon had hearts filled with gratitude. What a privilege to give back to God, the creator of the universe, even a part of what God had given them! You and I should feel the same why?

Because God has given us the most valuable gift in the world,

His Son the Lord Jesus to die on the cross for our sins 2Corinthians 9:15) God offers you His free gift of everlasting life what a wonder God He is! Nothing we could do for Him would ever be too much!

C. David gave Solomon detailed plans as well as gold and other materials to help in building the temple.

D. Solomon wisely gathered a huge force of workmen and wrote to Hiram King of Tyre, to recruit his help. The Israelite also willingly offered their help.

E. Solomon began to build the beautiful temple.

When the temple was complete, the Ark was brought into the Most Holy Place. As the special ceremony of dedication began the priest, singers and musicians celebrated the complete task.

CLIMAX: God honoured Solomon’s work by filling the temple with His glory.

CONCLUSION: Solomon praised and worshiped God and he asked God to forgive the sin of Israel, the temple was dedicated.
