The Original King Midas (1 Kings 9-10)

Share a commentIs success a blessing or a test? In this episode of The Wisdom Journey, Stephen Davey unpacks the rise of King Solomon, a man whose wisdom, wealth, and influence knew no bounds. Solomon’s kingdom flourished with gold, trade, and international fame, but God’s warning remained: obedience mattered more than riches. His interaction with the Queen of Sheba, the construction of his vast empire, and his unmatched prosperity all pointed to one undeniable truth—everything came from God. But would Solomon remain faithful, or would his riches lead to ruin? This episode reveals the power and pitfalls of prosperity and offers a timeless lesson for all who seek success today.https://www.wisdomonline.orgStephen Davey's newest book, The Disciples Prayer, is available now. https://www.wisdomonline.org/store/view/the-disciples-prayer-hardbackLearn more about twenty-five years of global impact, and reserve tickets to our gala. https://www.wisdomonline.org/mp/25 Learn more at https://www.wisdomonline.org/Support the show
