Day 121: Wisdom is Different From Obedience
Bible in a Year (The Story) Podcast - A podcast by Bible in a Year (The Story)
Categories:
1 Kings 1-2, 2 Chronicles 1, and Psalms 40-41. Today we read about a rocky transition of leadership from David to Solomon. We take note of Bathsheba who God chose as the Queen Mother of Israel. We learn about David’s last acts and words, learning more leadership lessons. We take note of Solomon’s request for wisdom and his use of that wisdom to disobey what God disallowed of kings in Deuteronomy 17. Remember, collecting horses, wealth, wives, chariots, and counting fighting men are all kingdom empire actions and not kingdom shalom actions of a king hallowing God’s name above his own.
