"The Power Of Prayer" | A Prayer For Wisdom

SCRIPTURE: 1 Kings 3:4-14

SHOW NOTES: For your spiritual journey, please visit our ministry website, Discover God's Truth, to access additional Bible study resources. 

In this new series, The Power of Prayer, we are excited to explore the prayers of people in the Bible. Today, we look closer at the stirring prayer of young King Solomon at the beginning of his reign. 

Solomon offered a thousand burnt offerings on the altar at Gibeon. That night, the Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream, and God said, “What do you want? Ask, and I will give it to you!” 1 Kings 3:4-5 

King Solomon dedicated himself and offered his genuine worship to Yahweh. God’s response was to bless Solomon. He acknowledged God’s goodness and faithfulness and his dependence on God.

"Give me an understanding heart so that I can govern your people well and know the difference between right and wrong. For who by himself is able to govern this great people of yours?” 1 Kings 3:9

Solomon requested an understanding heart, acknowledging that governing God’s chosen people was an immense challenge.

Wisdom is invaluable; however, godliness holds far greater significance.
