No expense was spared—everything here, inside and out, from foundation to roof was constructed using high-quality stone, accurately cut and shaped and polished. The foundation stones were huge, ranging in size from twelve to fifteen feet, and of the very best quality. The finest stone was used above the foundation, shaped to size and trimmed with cedar. The courtyard was enclosed with a wall made of three layers of stone and topped with cedar timbers, just like the one in the porch of The Temple of God .
1 Kings 7:9-12 MSG
Looking at the temple furnishing let's look at our own temple.
Where does your foundation stem from? Are you standing firm. Are you holding on to the confession without wavering. He who promised is faithful.
Made of precious stones. You are diamonds in the rough. You become a pearl of grace. We start on the Potter wheel. We have this treasure in jars of clay. We have to refined by fire. We are not consumed because of the Lord compassion . His mercies are new everyday.
What do the stones look like in your temple? Are they love, joy peace patience kindness goodness, gentleness, faithfulness and self control . Are they full malice and other kinds of evil?
Either way it goes if you bear fruit or not you will be purged of what don't produce and what does will be pruned.
You are precious in God sight.
