At the dedication of the temple, Solomon “knelt on his knees” and “spread out his hands” toward God and prayed, “Will God really live on earth? Why, even the highest heavens cannot contain you. How much less this Temple I have built!” (2 Chronicles 6:13, 6:18). Then he repeated the words that he had heard his father David utter so many times. “O Lord, there is none like You!” (2 Chronicles 6:14). What can we learn from Solomon’s great prayer? As we walk through his prayer, there are several principles we can apply to our own prayer lives.
