March 6

Introduction

When the Lord appears to Solomon in a dream, the young king asks God for the wisdom to rule his people. God is so pleased that Solomon has asked for wisdom that God promises to make him rich and respected as well.

Today’s Scripture Reading 

1 Kings 3:1-15

Today’s Key Verse: 1 Kings 3:9a

So give me the wisdom I need to rule your people with justice and to know the difference between good and evil.

Reflect

Reread 3:5-15. For what specifically does Solomon ask? How does God respond? What would you have asked for if you were chosen to be a ruler of a great country? What is your prayer for the leaders of nations today?

Pray

Almighty God, bless the leaders of all the nations with the wisdom they need to rule people with justice and to know the difference between right and wrong. Grant them strength and courage to lead your people. Amen.
