it is simply outstanding that a request void of self would generate such great promse of God.it is just amazing that God still prepares for man great riches if we obey, sacrifice right and pray righty that by the word of God

I would love for GOD to give just some of the wisdom that HE gave to Solomon and I would love to be able to discern the good and the evil that is around us.

just as the Bible teaches that wisdom without Christ is empty, this passage teaches that wisdom without God given love is empty. how would Solomon have been viewed if love had not removed the verdict? Praise our loving God.

Wisdom from Lord Jesus is not to blame others or his peoples but to understand them. So that they might me guided helped to get on the right path.

I agree with Brother Dickson that the Holy Spirit and obedience to His commandment will see us through.

May the good Lord see us through

1 Kings 3 is teaching two important things; first we can do the will of God with the help of the Holy Spirit. In verses 12-13 Solomon asked for wisdom and understanding for the service of God.

WHENEVER YOU THINK OF SOLOMON, YOU THINK OF WISDOM. SO MY VIEW ON THIS CHAPTER IS BASED ON MY OBSERVATION ON HOW WE MUST HUMBLE OURSELVES AND ACCEPT GOD'S WORD, TRUST GOD'S WORD, AND DEPEND ON THE SPIRIT TO TEACH AND DIRECT. THEREBY, OBTAINING THE STRONGEST DEBTS OF WISDOM POSSIBLE.

our special treasures can be stolen by the devil while a sleep.
