Solomon begins his reign with humility, worshiping God and acknowledging his need for wisdom. When offered anything by God, Solomon wisely asks for an understanding heart to govern rightly. God honors this request, granting him unmatched wisdom, which is soon demonstrated through the famous case of the two mothers disputing over a child. Solomon's reign brings peace, safety, and prosperity, as he appoints capable officials and begins preparing to build the temple. The lesson challenges us to prioritize wisdom above all else, reminding us from James 1:5 that God offers wisdom generously to all who ask in faith.
