Today I read 2 Chronicles 3, in which Solomon began building the temple of the Lord. Today I considered that when you are constructing a building you need a building plan.

Building Plan

Solomon built the temple according to the instructions he received (2 Chronicles 3:1-17). David had prepared the location to build. Solomon followed the instructions for the length, width, and height of the building, and the formation of the pillars and cherubim. Solomon had the inside of the temple overlaid with gold. The veil was made of blue, purple, and red fine linen. Solomon followed a building plan.

Questions and Thoughts for Today

When people build houses they have building plans. Building plans make sure the house is stable and strong. Everyone wants a house that will last and endure. Before you begin building something, do you look at the instructions like Solomon did?
