all right Jennifer LeClaire here with you senior leader at the awakening house a
prayer founder of the ignite network in the awakening blaze prayer movement I
want to share with you today a key to prosperity now we know that the Bible
says that the that the blessing of the Lord maketh rich and he adds no sorrow
to it many of us labor in toil and strive not just to earn a living but to
be rich when the Bible says the blessing of the Lord maketh rich now we know that
the everything we put our hand to will prosper we know that that that the
diligent hand maketh rich the Bible is the blessing of the Lord maketh rich but
it also says the hand of the diligent brings riches whereas the slack hand
brings poverty so it's not as if we have to do nothing we have to do our part and
God will do his part but here we find in 1st Kings chapter 3 this is a familiar
story but let's listen to it through the eyes of prosperity just for a moment we
usually usually listen to it through the eyes of wisdom but we're going to listen
to it through the eyes of prosper through the ears rather of prosperity
today here we see in Solomon 3 verse 4 the king went to Gibeon to sacrifice
therefore there was a great high place and he offered thousand burnt offerings
on that altar while he was in Gibeon the Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream at
night and he said ask what you want from me now that's just magnificent the Lord
comes in ask Solomon ask what you want can you imagine what would you do if the
Lord came to you an ad and said ask for anything huh my goodness in verse 6 he
said Solomon answered you have shown great mercy to your servant David my
father because he walked before you and faithfulness
righteousness and uprightness of heart towards you and you have shown him great
kindness and giving him a son to sit on his throne this day verse 7 now O Lord
my God you have made your servant King in a place in place of my father David
and I am still a little child and do not know how to go out or how to come in now
I study this this morning how old was Solomon when he was beginning to reign
and most scholars settle on 20 a few say he was 1415 some say he was thirty
the majority of reputable Bible scholars say he was twenty years old as a matter
of fact I'm gonna prophesy right now I need this written down somebody email me
the Lord showed me this morning that he was pouring out wisdom on Millennials
and Gen Z who were pursuing his agenda in his heart and these Millennials are
gonna rise up with witty inventions and innovations like the world has never
seen and they're going to shake things up in the marketplace and they're going
to shake things up in the government and they're going to shake things up in the
seven mountains of society those Millennials who are after the heart of
God a mantle of wisdom is going to fall upon them and prosperity is gonna chase
them blessings are gonna overtake them and even the gen Z that the younger ones
than that I'm telling you I saw this so clearly in prayer this morning and I
totally forgot about it until now somebody sent me an email and remind me
of this please prophetic utterances sometimes are quickly forgotten help me
remember my goodness if you're a millennial press into this he was 20
verse 8 and your servant is in the midst of your people whom you have chosen a
great people so numerous that they cannot be numbered accounted give your
servant therefore an understanding heart to judge your people that I may discern
between good and bad for who is able to judge among so great a people verse 10
it pleased the Lord that Solomon had asked
this God said to him because you have asked this and not asked for yourself
long life or riches or for the lives of your enemies but have asked for yourself
wisdom so that you may have discernment in judging I now do according to your
words now this is amazing the Lord is doing according to Solomon's
words and when we ask rightly see the Bible says you have not because you ask
not but you might consume it upon your lust or that because you ask amiss you
have not because you ask not or you ask amiss because you want to consume it on
your own lust we ask a miss we ask with wrong motives sometimes we wonder why we
don't get an answer but Solomon's motive was to judge the people right he wanted
to do well in his calling he wanted to fulfill his calling he wanted to make
the Lord proud of him and so to speak he wanted to do right he wanted to do well
he didn't want to disappoint his father David he understood and he had to fear
the Lord at that time his life he said Lord said I now do according to your
words I had given you a wise and understanding heart so that there has
never been anyone like you in the past and there shall never arise another like
you verse 13 now this is magnificent I have also given you what you have not
asked both riches and honor so that no Kings will compare to you all of your
days if you will walk in my ways keeping my statutes and my Commandments as your
father David did then I will lengthen your days and Solomon awoke and found it
was a dream how many know God can impart things to you and your dreams did you
know that God can have God Himself I God Himself can impart things to you in your
dreams and then right after that we read about how the two women the two
prostitutes came with the baby and one said it's mine the baby died and the
living one is mine the other one said no the living child is mine and Solomon
displayed such immediate and immaculate wisdom straight from the Lord and so
what are the keys to prosperity is wisdom you should want wisdom more
than riches it's better to be had than silver or gold it's better to be had
than anything else and wisdom listen friends wisdom will lead you into
prosperity the blessing of the Lord maketh rich
and he adds no sorrow to it seek wisdom pray for wisdom that is the principal
