In this Message, Pastor Jael continues our Downfall series by exploring Solomon’s early leadership in 1 Kings 3 and the God-honoring qualities that shaped his reign. After reflecting on the importance of engaging the whole story of Scripture—including the often-overlooked Old Testament—the teaching highlights Solomon’s humility, his concern for God’s people, and his remarkable request for wisdom when God invited him to ask for anything. Rooted in the truth that a genuine relationship with God is essential for meaningful spiritual influence, the message shows how Solomon’s wisdom blessed the entire nation and how godly wisdom still directs our lives and leadership today. Ultimately, Solomon’s story points beyond himself to Jesus, the true and perfect King whose wisdom, righteousness, holiness, and redemption shape the lives of all who follow Him.
