Wisdom I

2 Chronicles 9:7 'Happy are thy men, and happy are these thy servants, which stand continually before thee, and hear thy wisdom.'

When the queen of Sheba went to visit Solomon in 2 chronicles 9:7, she concluded that, 'happy are your men and your servants who stand to continually hear your words of wisdom.' 

After years of taking heed to God’s word, our lives begin to change. The only reason for that is that the Word of God reveals God's wisdom to us which transforms us. When God asked Solomon what he wanted from Him as he was ascending to the throne of his father David, Solomon asked for wisdom. 'Give me now wisdom and knowledge, that I may go out and come in before this people: for who can judge this thy people, that is so great?' (2Ch 1:10). The Bible says God gave Solomon wisdom, knowledge, wealth greater than any other king before or after him. It is estimated that if he was alive today, he would be worth over 200 billion dollars, an amount none has ever had.

King Solomon was a man of the old testament which was a shadow of the New testament. As New Testament people, we know Christ is the wisest man that has ever walked the earth for He was greater than Solomon being God in flesh. He has become our wisdom according to 1 Cor 1:30. Embracing Christ and walking in His wisdom comes with benefits which are power and wealth. 

And God is ready to release that power over you if you are willing to take responsibility for it for great power comes with great responsibility.
