God’s Tent of Meeting…is this the original tent that Moses made in the desert? If so it is 400+ years old. Did the people replace the worn out parts or did God take care of the tent pieces like He took care of their clothes and sandals so that they didn’t wear out?

The tent of meeting was still at Gibeon but the ark of the covenant was in Jerusalem in a tent David had prepared for it.

Isn’t it amazing that Solomon could have asked for anything and yet he only asked for discernment in order to govern the people?  The fruits of Solomon's wisdom were peace, security, and prosperity for his nation. And equally amazing that God gave him riches and honor in addition to the wisdom, even though Solomon didn’t ask for that.

BUT…even MORE amazing than that, He has promised to give us this wisdom as well.

James 1:5-6
If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him. But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind.

There is a caveat attached however to this wisdom. We must believe and not doubt!

We may be given wisdom but we must apply that wisdom to everyday life situations.
