‏ 2 Chronicles 7:4-5

v. 4–5: Solomon and all the people offered many sacrifices to God (2 Chronicles 7:4-5 a). They had already given offerings before, but now they gave even more. When God shows us his favor, we should be even more eager to serve him. The king’s example encouraged everyone else to join in. There were so many sacrifices that the altar could not hold them all, so some were burned in the courtyard (2 Chronicles 7:7 b).
