When Solomon addressed the nation of Israel to dedicate the temple to God, he stood on a platform so everyone could see him. Then he did something that kings just didn’t do.
He knelt down (2Chr 6:13) in public.
“…he stood, and kneeled down upon his knees before all the congregation of Israel, and spread forth his hands toward heaven,”
This gesture conveyed to everyone that, although he was a powerful king, he was under a King of higher authority.
As a leader, do you make it clear to others that you are under a higher authority? Can others tell from how you behave that you depend on God?

It’s tough when God’s leading goes against the grain of popularity. But it’s a good way to demonstrate that you’re marching to the heavenly drum.
