King Solomon's Demise

Hey young people, welcome to our latest blog entry.  In this entry we will look at the importance of being connected to Godly people vs. ungodly people.  In 1 Kings 4, we see all of the wealth that Solomon had gained.  One verse says that Solomon had a 40,000 chariot stall.  Think about a 40,000 car garage.  Whoa!!! It would take about 109 years to ride all of those horses if he rode one per day. He had just built the temple and laced it with gold and he was in good standing with God.  Later though in the eleventh chapter, we see that Solomon connected himself to some ungodly women and started to serve their gods.  Because of this God took the kingdom away from him.  Deuteronomy 8:18 says remember the Lord your God for it is He who gives you the power to create wealth.  Solomon was also very wise.  He was able to figure things out easily with the help of the Lord. It is important that we stay with God and with His people.  He will bless you richly if you stay with Him.


God Bless
