covenant of love

1 Kings 8:22-30
Solomon stood before the altar of the Lord in front of the whole assembly of Israel, spread out his hands toward heaven and prayed.
O, Lord, God of Israel there is no God like you in heaven above or on earth below.
You who keep your covenant of love with your servants who continue wholeheartedly in your way.
The Lord promised David: You shall never fail to have a man to sit before me on the throne of Israel, if only your sons are careful in all they do to walk before me as you have done.
But will God really dwell on earth? The heavens, even the highest heaven, cannot contain you. How much less this temple I have built! Yet give attention to your servant's prayer and his plea for mercy. may your eyes be open toward this temple night and day, this place of which you said ' My Name shall be there'. Hear the supplication of your servant and of your people Israel when they pray toward this place.
Why?
Solomon humbled himself, even he built the temple is small,for the Lord don't have to dwell in this temple. But for his Name shall be there.
Worship God and pray to the Lord for his Name.
Solomon knew if only carefully in all you do to walk before the Lord as his father David has done, the mercy of the Lord will come upon him. But at the older age of Solomon was away from the Lord. Human being is an easy forgotten animal.
Most people cant enter the temple to pray, but pray toward this temple, it is mean turn your mind and heart to the Lord, the Lord will listen to your prayer.
How?
The Lord care about our heart and mind. Turn to the Lord and pray in his name.
I will do wholeheartedly in His way.
