Priorities

What should we ask of God?
Jesus was very clear on what our priority should be - But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. - Matthew 6:33 Solomon’s priority was to have the same wonderful relationship with God that meant so much to his father.
When other’s see what you prioritize in your life does that lead them to Jesus?
In the New Testament Paul warns us to stay away from false teachers, myths, and unsound doctrines.
As I urged you when I went into Macedonia, stay there in Ephesus so that you may command certain people not to teach false doctrines any longer 4 or to devote themselves to myths and endless genealogies. Such things promote controversial speculations rather than advancing God’s work—which is by faith. 5 The goal of this command is love, which comes from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith. 6 Some have departed from these and have turned to meaningless talk. - 1 Timothy1:3-6
We need to check our motives and heart for why we want knowledge and wisdom. Solomon’s motive and heart was pure in asking for it, and it was given to him. 

Are you ready to ask the God who wants to be asked?

This is crucial step to wisdom…Are you ready?

Have a good and Godly Day.
