There is peace in the land; therefore, Solomon's begins to build a house for the LORD's name. Would it, could it, also be said: Solomon begins to build a house for the LORD's name; therefore, there is peace in the land? Are both true statements?
The people of God have been at war since Israel and are still at it today. If we spent more time proclaiming the name of the LORD, would peace subsequently follow? Just wondering... It may or not bring world peace - probably not... Jesus did say he came not to bring peace, but a sword. But, I do think that if we were truly about giving glory to God's name, we would know peace within ourselves and a greater peace within the church on earth, among God's people.
God's peace be with you all..
