🎼 Psalms 115–117
115:1 not unto us, but unto thy name give glory. We must never seek glory for ourselves ,but rather always desire to manifest God’s glory and honor His name before the world.We must derermine to live in such a way that we will not bring shame or reproach upon the name of Christ or His church.

1 Kings 8:12 –32
12–22
Solomon encouraged the priests, who were much astonished at the dark cloud. The dark dispensations of Providence should quicken us in fleeing for refuge to the hope of the gospel. Nothing can more reconcile us to them, than to consider what God has said, and to compare his word and works together. Whatever good we do, we must look on it as the performance of God’s promise to us, not of our promises to him.
