1 Kings 8:62-66
The king and all the Israelite dedicated(devoted) the temple of the Lord.
Solomon observed the festival at that time, and all Israel with him - a vast assembly, people from Lebo Hamath to the Wadi of Egypt. They celebrated it before the Lord out God for seven days and seven days more, 14 days in all.
They blessed the king and then went home, joyful and glad in heart for all the good things the Lord had done for his servant David and his people Israel.
Why?
There were 22,000 cattle and 120,000 sheep for fellowship offering. Each day had about 1500~600 cattle and 8500~8600 sheep, it could serve 100~200 thousand people, most of the people in Jerusalem should enjoyed to eat these meat.
The king play the key role to worship the Lord, it may affect the people to follow him to worship the Lord, observe God's decree. Taiwan needs a spiritual leader to leads people turn to the Lord.
The king and people together to worship the Lord with joyful and glad in heart to dedicate the temple of the Lord. It is the real worship in whole country.
How?
Worship the Lord with joy and glad in our heart.
