God speaks in dreams to Solomon: I have heard your prayer and your supplication that you have made before Me

After having finished the temple dedicated to the Lord and having received the spiritual gifts of wisdom and understanding in dreams in the sacred place of Gibeon, King Solomon receives a second dream from God. The Lord reminds King Solomon of the covenant with Moses, and fundamentally the fulfillment of the first and second commandments (Exodus 20:3-4).
King Solomon had already received great glory for all the good things he had done, but the Lord tells to him that the glory belongs only to him, the glory is perfect fame, and that the King must serve and worship the only true God, only so he will be able to receive the blessings of the Lord and have an offspring that will endure on the throne of king David.
This is how the first Book of Kings describes Solomon's second dream with God:
"And it came to pass, when Solomon had finished building the house of the LORD and the king's house, and all Solomon's desire which he wanted to do, that the LORD appeared to Solomon the second time, as He had appeared to him at Gibeon. And the LORD said to him: ´I have heard your prayer and your supplication that you have made before Me; I have consecrated this house which you have built to put My name there forever, and My eyes and My heart will be there perpetually. Now if you walk before Me as your father David walked, in integrity of heart and in uprightness, to do according to all that I have commanded you, and if you keep My statutes and My judgments, then I will establish the throne of your kingdom over Israel forever, as I promised David your father, saying, ´You shall not fail to have a man on the throne of Israel.´" 1 Kings 9:1-5.
God speaks in dreams to Solomon. I have heard your prayer and your supplication that you have made before Me.jpg
But the dream also relates that God also warns the King that if his leadership fails and the chosen people are perverted in front of other gods, curses will come upon them. God always speaks the truth in dreams and man must be faithful.
The dreams of Solomon with God explain again the importance of the gift of fear of God (firmness, constancy, devotion, equanimity), which is the bond that maintains the pact with God, without this spiritual gift any relationship with God is impossible.
