After the death of king David, Solomon was crowned king. He was very young and felt inadequate and ill-equipped.
1 Kings 3:5, 7, 9
At Gibeon the Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream by night, and God said, “Ask what I shall give you?"
And now, O Lord my God, you have made your servant king in place of David my father, although I am but a little child. I do not know how to go out or come in.
Give your servant therefore an understanding mind to govern your people...
Solomon’s realization of his own inadequacy caused him to cry out to God for the wisdom. The Bible says that God was pleased that Solomon had asked for wisdom and not riches or anything else.
If you are faced with a task that is too enormous and you feel inadequate, ask Jesus for wisdom. The Bible says in James 1:5, If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously, without finding fault. He will then give you the wisdom to complete the task with excellence and great finesse.

You're not powerful enough to ruin God's plan for you.
In case you thought you blew it.
In case you thought you were too far gone.
In case you are stuck in fear.
Rest in the fact that God is a God of redemption, and He knows your limitations.
Psalm 103:13-14 reminds us: "As a father shows compassion to his children, so the Lord shows compassion to those who fear Him. For He knows our frame; He remembers that we are dust."
If you're seeking to honor God, you're exactly where you need to be. He sees your heart, your sacrifices, and your obedience. It's not about perfection, but submission. God fulfills His plans through willing hearts.
Please don't think that you messed up the story.
Continue to show up faithfully, and know that God, in His faithfulness, will do His part and direct your path. 🌿

THE WORD FOR 25/4
The Bible says that Solomon was the wisest man in all the earth. How can such a wise man turn away from His God. 
Deuteronomy 17: 18-20 says that a king who sits on the throne has to write down God's law, and read it all the days of his life, that he may fear the Lord and not turn away from God's commandments. Apparently Solomon failed to follow this commandment. In the same chapter God instructs kings not to have many wives lest they turn their hearts away from God. Solomon obviously did not pay attention to this commandment either. As a result he became a slave to every kind of vice under the Sun. If the wisest man on earth could be lured to the path of sin,  so can we. We must be vigilant to guard our hearts and minds. We must be steadfast to abide in Jesus, lest we fall away. Jesus said apart from Me you can do nothing. Let us diligently study God's word, obey it  and cling to Jesus and live lives that is pleasing in His sight.

Psalm‬ ‭150:1‭-‬6‬ ‭(NIV‬‬). “Praise the Lord. Praise God in his sanctuary; praise him in his mighty heavens. Praise him for his acts of power; praise him for his surpassing greatness. Praise him with the sounding of the trumpet, praise him with the harp and lyre, praise him with timbrel and dancing, praise him with the strings and pipe, praise him with the clash of cymbals, praise him with resounding cymbals. Let everything that has breath praise the Lord. Praise the Lord.”
“Everything That Has Breath Shall Praise”
“Make it your daily habit to look for the good things God gives and does.”
“The desire to give praise is hardwired in the human spirit—it’s an impulse we can’t ignore. And as Christians, we’re called to direct that tendency to the One who made us. The apostle Peter says it like this: “You are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God’s own possession, so that you may proclaim the excellencies of Him who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light” (1 Peter 2:9).
It’s a beautiful truth that we are God’s own people—created, chosen, and called by Him to live a life of praise, both on our own and with other believers. In Psalm 34, David says, “I will bless the Lord at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth” (Psalm 34:1). However, he’s not content to be a solo act. He exhorts other believers to join him: “Exalt the Lord with me, and let’s exalt His name together” (Psalm 34:3).
So let’s praise Him at church on Sunday morning and on our front porches at sunset—when we start the workday and each evening as we lie down to rest. Also, let’s remember to praise Him not only for what He has done but also for the excellency of His character. God truly is worthy of our adoration!”
