The Lord Honors Humility

1 Kings 3:10-14

Because Solomon humbly asked for wisdom to guide his people, God rewarded him with riches and honor in addition to wisdom. God desires that His followers serve Him in humility, not wishing to achieve great personal gain. Yet He often rewards them richly when they do walk humbly with Him, for He "is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think," (Ephesians 3:20). May we praise God for not only meeting our daily needs but also blessing us far beyond our requests.
