Solomon loved the Lord and followed all the decrees of his father, David, except that Solomon, too, offered sacrifices and burned incense at the local places of worship.

Give me an understanding heart so that I can govern your people well and know the difference between right and wrong.

Lord God my Father,
Grant me the wisdom to pursue your wisdom. May I lead my family fairly and care for all you have trusted me with under your authority to be used for your glory.

In Jesus name,
Amen
