Bible Verse of The Day – 4-13-21

1 Kings 3:7 (NKJV) 7 Now, O Lord my God, You have made Your servant king instead of my father David, but I am a little child; I do not know how to go out or come in.

Here, Solomon is asking the Lord to help him in the position that He set him up in. This is a very important detail.

The Lord had placed Solomon where he was. And Solomon is speaking to the Lord saying, “you have made me king, but I don’t understand how or what to do. Please help me, guide me and give me Your understanding to handle this position. The people of Israel are too numerous for me to handle and I need Your understanding to know how”.

1 Kings 3:8-9 (NKJV) 8 And Your servant is in the midst of Your people whom You have chosen, a great people, too numerous to be numbered or counted. 9 Therefore give to Your servant an understanding heart to judge Your people, that I may discern between good and evil. For who is able to judge this great people of Yours?”

Don’t ever be afraid to ask God how.

He expects us to come to Him and ask whatever we may need from Him.

If we are shy or too prideful to ask, we will risk losing what He has placed in our hands.

You see, just because He places us in a position or on a new job doesn’t mean it’s ours forever. Maybe He has given us something to handle and take care of for a season or time.

God will guide us as to what to do, and how He wants it to be carried out.

God is moving His children into areas and places we’ve never been before, doing things we have never dealt with before; new ground and unfamiliar territory.

We are not alone. God Himself is with us all the more. Call on His name for help and clarity.
