As Solomon grew old, his wives turned his heart after other gods, and his heart was not fully devoted to the Lord his God, as the heart of David his father had been.
The Lord became angry with Solomon because his heart had turned away from the Lord, the God of Israel, who had appeared to him twice.
King Solomon was greater in riches and wisdom than all the other kings of the earth.
Lord God my Father,
Protect my heart from deceit and keep me focused on your Truth only. Keep me from growing arrogant and turning from you. Bless me with a spirit that shares you well.
In Jesus name I pray,
Amen
