Commentary
1 Kings 5
Solomon builds the Temple
Solomon has a great calling on his life. Even just this one project, building the temple that his father had desired to dedicate unto the Lord, was indeed a very large project. Solomon was a young king, even with all of his wisdom. As the building process began to take shape, Solomon developed a system, or levy, so that everything is organized and well planned.
Some of us are from very small origins, yet we have before us some very large scale operations. The Lord blesses us beyond all that we ask or even imagine. He also makes available every resource we need so that we can accomplish the task. It's never too much to comprehend. Understanding is clearer as we get into the details. God is great, and all that we do for His name is priceless in His eyes. He will make the way straight.
If this thing He has set before you is bigger than anything you have ever attempted before, be encouraged in the fact that God chose you to do it, and that He has confidence that you will pull it off. He will provide. You will grow even closer to God for it. You will learn more than you knew you could. Things that seemed clear before will be clearer still. God is with you. Give your full effort. Be of a cheerful heart. Do it unto the Lord.
