Day 1 | Solomon's Prayer for Wisdom

Read: 1 Kings 3:3–9 

Have you ever gotten a promotion or an opportunity to take on more leadership responsibility, only to realize you’re in over your head? 

When Solomon became king, he prayed for wisdom to govern God’s people well. He knew he was stepping into a huge job, one he couldn’t do well alone. His humble request pleased God, who granted him unparalleled wisdom.  

When we seek God’s wisdom over personal gain, we can serve others more effectively and make decisions that honor God in the process. God is more than ready to equip you for whatever’s ahead – all you need to do is ask.
