What Are You Building With The Wisdom God Has Given You? 02/08/26

In 1 Kings 8:1–13, 22–30, Solomon completes and dedicates the temple, showing that wisdom is not just for making good decisions—it is meant to build something that points people to God. As the glory of the Lord fills the temple, we are reminded that God’s presence validates God’s work, and Solomon’s humble prayer teaches us that true worship keeps God bigger than anything we build. The temple was never meant to showcase Solomon’s greatness, but to invite people to encounter the faithfulness, forgiveness, and presence of God. This message challenges us to ask what we are building with the wisdom God has given us—our careers, families, ministries, reputations, and legacies—and whether those things reflect God’s glory or simply our own success.
