Bible Point: We become wise by following God’s Word
Key Verse: “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.” Proverbs 9:10
We learned this week that Solomon’s wisdom was so great that people came from all nations to hear what he had to say. And we learned that Solomon said wisdom means following God’s Word (1 Kings 4:29-34; Proverbs 1:1-7).
