TOPIC: What’s the Best Gift?
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE: 2 Chronicles 2:1-10
KEY VERSE: The temple I am going to build will be great, because our God is greater than all other gods – 2 Chronicles 2:5
A friend was about to celebrate a big birthday. I wanted to help plan a party that he’d really love. I spent a long time thinking about what we could do because I wanted the party to show how important he was to us all.
King Solomon wanted to give God a much more important gift than a big birthday. He wanted the temple he built to be pleasing to God as the place that He would meet with His people. To get hold of the building materials he would need, he messaged the king of Tyre. In his letter, he said that the temple would be great “because our God is greater than all other gods” (2 Chron. 2:5). He realised that God’s power and goodness was far bigger and better than anything that could ever be built with human hands. But Solomon set about building the temple anyway, out of his love for God.
Our God is definitely greater than anyone or anything else. He has done amazing things in all our lives, and it is right that we want to show our love and thanks to Him. Solomon knew his gift wouldn’t match God’s worth, yet he set it before Him all the same. No matter who we are, we can also bring our lives (and everything in them) as a gift to our God with thanks and praise.
REFLECT: THE BEST GIFT WE CAN GIVE TO GOD IS OURSELVES
