Now, Lord God of Israel, keep the other promise you made… So now, Lord God of Israel, let everything come true that you promised…
Yes, Lord, so now (Habakkuk 2:3).
Watch over this Temple day and night.
Indeed please, Father (1 Corinthiens 3:16).
“You alone know the thoughts of the human heart.”
So true (John 2:24-25).
“…so that all the peoples of the world may know you and obey you…”
May I see that with my own eyes, Lord (Habakkuk 2:14).
“Now, O my God, look on us and listen to the prayers offered… Remember the love you had for your servant…”
Yes, my God.
When King Solomon finished his prayer, fire came down from heaven and burned up the sacrifices that had been offered…
No (1 Kings 8:62-64). Once again, what happened with Elijah is projected onto this event (1 Kings 18:30-39).
When the people of Israel saw the fire fall from heaven and the light fill the Temple, they fell face downward on the pavement, worshiping God and praising him for his goodness and his eternal love.
The only response possible although I don’t think goodness and eternal love were the primary motivators.
