If you’re a child of God, then you want His wisdom. So did Solomon. By God’s grace, he became the wisest man to ever live. Today we’ll look at his life and how God gave him wisdom to grapple with the challenges he was facing. Join us! 

DISCUSSION AND STUDY QUESTIONS:

1.    What do we learn about Solomon’s heart for the Lord in the first part of verse 3? According to the podcast, how should we understand this statement in light of verse 1? 
2.    Likewise, what was going on in verse 2? What did this reflect about the people’s devotion to the Lord? How was Solomon joining in this practice in verses 3 & 4?
3.    What transpires in verses 5 to 15? What did Solomon ask for? Why? 
4.    What did the Lord give Solomon in verses 11-13? What was the stipulation for this blessing in verse 14? 
5.    How does verse 14 help us see what it looks like to walk with the Lord? 
6.    What did the women want in verses 16 to 27? How was Solomon’s wisdom on display? What was the outcome of his decision for these women? 
7.    In verse 28, how did the people respond to this display of wisdom? Why do people respond this way when they encounter God’s wisdom?
8.    More than likely, you want wisdom. What guidelines did the podcast give for how to have God’s wisdom in a situation? How was this principle demonstrated in Solomon’s life? 
9.    The podcast also took a bird’s eye view of Solomon’s life. Where is his life going? How could this have been avoided? 
10.    Where is your own life going? How can you continue to walk in God’s wisdom?
