The glory of the Lord

1 Kings 8:1-21
King Solomon summoned into his present at Jerusalem the elders of chiefs of the Israelite families, to bring up the ark of the Lord's covenant from Zion, the City of David.
They sacrificing so many sheep and cattle that they could not be recorded or counted.
The priests then brought the ark of the Lord's covenant to its place in the inner sanctuary of the temple. When the priests withdraw from the Holy Place, the cloud filled the temple of the Lord. And the priests could not perform their service because of the cloud, for the glory of the Lord filled his temple.
Praise be to the Lord the God of Israel, who with his own hand has fulfilled what he promised with his own mouth to his father David. Solomon has succeeded David and sit on the throne of Israel, Solomon built the temple for the name of the Lord, the God of Israel.
The ark, in which is the covenant of the Lord that he made with our fathers when he brought them out of Egypt.
Why?
The shines with the the light of God's presence- the same bright cloud that once rested on God's Tent in the desert(Exodus 40:34-38)
The Lord would dwell in a dark cloud, but for the Solomon, the Lord will dwell in his temple. But this situation did not stay longer for the sins of Israelite.
When the glory of the Lord will fill in temple? Now the temple is in our heart of each christian when we obey his commands.
How?
Keep our heart holy and obey what Jesus said, then the glory of the Lord may come upon us. let my life may glorify the name of the Lord.
