Day 199 - Read 2 Chronicles 7-9

When Solomon finished his prayer, fire came from heaven and consumed the burnt offering and sacrifices. The glory of the Lord filled the temple. The people of Israel worshiped and gave thanks to the Lord. Solomon offered sacrifices and held a feast for seven days. The Lord told Solomon that He would forgive their sin and heal their land if they would pray and seek His face and turn from their wicked ways. Solomon built as he willed and accomplished great things. He honored the feasts according to the commands of the Lord. The queen of Sheba tested Solomon and found him to have great wisdom. His wealth was unmatched. Solomon reigned for forty years and died. His son Rehoboam reigned in his place.
