If you want to increase your level of knowledge, there are plenty of things you can do. You can read a book, you can study, or you can listen to podcasts and watch videos. There are endless ways to gather information these days. But wisdom is different. Wisdom is not the same as knowledge.

So how do you gain wisdom?

There are many answers to that question, but tucked away in 1 Kings 10 is a simple, practical, often‑overlooked key to becoming wise. It’s not complicated. It’s not mystical, and it’s not reserved for scholars..... And it’s something everyone of us can do.

In 1 Kings 10, the Queen of Sheba travels across the world to meet Solomon—and in the process, teaches us something profound about how to grow in wisdom….

It really does appear that God exceptionally blesses some people. When you look through Scripture, you see it again and again. But perhaps no one illustrates this more vividly than Solomon. His life is marked by extraordinary blessings—wisdom, wealth, influence, peace, and the privilege of building the temple itself.

So, the question naturally arises: Why did God bless Solomon, and what did God say to Solomon that might reveal why He chooses to bless anyone? Furthermore do we have to do what Solomon did, and if we did, would we receive the same kind of blessing?

These are the questions at the heart of 1 Kings 9.... So let's explore why God blesses some people—and what that blessing looks like for us today….

Three thousand years ago, a very wise man prayed a prayer. Not just any prayer—the longest recorded prayer in the entire Bible. And we still have it. Preserved word-for-word and spoken by a man that scripture says was the wisest on earth.

Solomon also prayed this prayer on one of the most significant days in Israel’s history: the dedication of the temple. And because of when he prayed it and why he prayed it, and what he prayed, this chapter is by nature one of the richest lessons in the bible on how to talk to the Lord…
