In today’s reading portion, there are several references to what the king’s heart’s desire is. When we ask wisely, we can become a pipeline of God’s blessing. Solomon asked for wisdom and God gave him everything.

God gave the souls of men to Jesus. Believers are encouraged to set their affection on things above, not on things of the earth. [Col. 3:1]

“Ask and you shall receive, seek and you shall find, knock and it shall be opened unto you.” [Matt. 7:7]

PRAYER: Father, You are giving us because You are a giving God. Teach us to desire eternal things rather than temporal. Allow us to navigate life without becoming carnally covetous.
