Did Something That Had Never Been Done
Solomon was an Uncommon Achiever.
Uncommon Achievers are different.
In a doubting world, they Believe.
In a slow world, they Run.
In a weeping world, they Laugh.
In a quitting world, they Persevere.
Solomon was Famous. He wrote songs and collected proverbs. Kings begged for an appointment with him.
Solomon experienced tragic failures in his personal life, yet he rose to prominence that even Jesus mentioned him thousands of years later in (Matthew 6:29 & Matthew 12:42.)
He was not a Perfect man but he was a Productive man.
How wealthy was Solomon?
The Temple that Solomon built cost $500 Billion! That does not include his Palace.
What an Uncommon Achievement!
Have you ever stopped to consider the difference betweeen $1 Million and $ 1 Billion?
A stack of $1,000 Bills totaling 1 Million would be 12 inches high.
A stack of $1,000 Bills totaling 1 Billion would be taller than the Empire State Building!
That my friend is Wealth!
Uncommon leaders are worth knowing.
Uncommon kings are worth studying.
Uncommon dreamers are worthy of pursuit.
Solomon was a Dreamer!
Dreamers are often misunderstood.
Dreamers provide jobs and income for those who refuse to dream.
He knew how limited he really was within his own power.
In (1 Kings 3:7,9) "I am only a little child and do not know how to carry out my duties."..."So give your servant a discerning heart to govern your people and to distinguish between right and wrong. For who is able to govern this great people of Yours?"
Solomon pursued Wisdom continuously!
In (Ecclesiastes 1:13) "I devoted myself to study and to explore by wisdom all that is done under heaven."
Your Dream is obtainable.
Your Dream is closer than you think.
Your Dream is necessary and essential.
Wake Up!
It is your turn to do something significant with your life, which is slipping between your fingers every hour and every minute of every day.
When Solomon fueled the desire to build the temple, God became involved. Instructions were given, respected and followed. No expense was spared!
