Solomon's Praise Of God

(2 Chronicles 7:1-5)

When King Solomon finished his prayer, fire came down from heaven and burned up the sacrifices that had been offered, and the dazzling light of the Lord's presence filled the Temple.  Because the Temple was full of the dazzling light, the priests could not enter it.  When the people of Israel saw the fire fall down from heaven and the light fill the Temple, they fell face downward on the pavement, worshiping God and praising him for his goodness and his eternal love.  Then Solomon and all the people offered sacrifices to the Lord. He sacrificed 22,000 heads of cattle and 120,000 sheep as fellowship offerings.  And so he and all the people dedicated the Temple.
