So give Your servant an understanding heart to judge Your people to discern between good and evil. For who is able to judge this great people of Yours? I Kings 3:9
God was pleased with with Solomon's request. He chose wisdom over money, power, or long life, and God granted him all of it.. Solomon's kingdom had a great start, but a sad ending. Solomon failed to exercise that wisdom daily and it wasn't long until He was not living in God's will at all. We may know the right thing to ask for in our requests to God, but let us never forget that we need to renew those requests and exercise them daily to stay active. The term, "use it or lose it" really does apply here.
