2 Chronicles 6–7; Psalm 136

Common Theme
God’s covenantal faithfulness and glory are central in Solomon’s temple dedication and the Psalm’s refrain. Both passages highlight that God’s steadfast love endures forever and that His presence among His people is cause for worship and awe.

Questions

• How does God’s presence in the temple shape Israel’s identity and purpose?
• Why is the repeated phrase “His steadfast love endures forever” such a powerful theological anchor in both celebration and repentance?

God Shot
God reveals Himself as the covenant-keeping King who hears, forgives, and fills His dwelling place with glory. He delights to be near His people—not distantly ruling, but actively responding, forgiving, and reigning in loyal love that endures forever.
