Shall we turn in our Bibles tonight to Proverbs, chapter 1. The first
six verses are sort of a preface to the book, as authors many times
write a preface to their work.

The Proverbs of Solomon the son of David, the king of Israel (Pro 1:1);

When Solomon first came into the throne of his father David, the kingdom
of Israel had come really to the zenith of its glory, of power. It was
at that point one of the strongest kingdoms in the world. Blessed of God
mightily. And when Solomon became king, God said unto Solomon, "Ask of
Me what you will." And Solomon prayed unto the Lord and said, "Lord, I
ask You that You would give me wisdom in governing over these Your
people." And so the Lord said unto Solomon, "Inasmuch as you did not ask
for fame or riches or honor, but you asked for wisdom, I will grant unto
you that which you have asked, but I will also give to you that which
you did not ask. I will give to you wealth and honor and glory." And so
the scripture said that God gave wisdom unto Solomon.

Unfortunately, in Solomon\
