The Life Of Solomon | A Man Of Wisdom
Shared on: Jul 24, 2023
This sermon collection considers the life of King Solomon, particularly his request for wisdom as the LORD tells him to ask for whatever he would like. If such a question was posed to us, what would we say? Would we ask for wisdom or would we be more likely to ask for riches, prosperity, health, long life, or power? As Solomon asks for wisdom, he is praised by God for his request. For in wisdom flows obedience to God. Job defines for us what wisdom is when he said, "Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom, and to turn away from evil is understanding" (Job 28:28).
