Biblical Secret to Success
The bible said your capital is wisdom, it also said; wisdom
is the principal thing, with all getting, get Knowledge. God said to Solomon to
ask for what he desired, he never requested for wealth, money, long life, but
he requested for wisdom and knowledge. Imaging God ask you to requests for what
you want. I believed you will bring out long list of your request that you have
being keeping for long time ago. But because Solomon recognized that wisdom and knowledge
is the key to success. And his father, David, had instructed him to seek for
wisdom and knowledge, because it is the principal thing. Prov 4:7 Wisdom is
the principal thing; Therefore get wisdom. And in all your getting, get
understanding. NKJV
That was why when God questioned Solomon to ask for what he wants
from him, in the books of chronicles,
2 Chron 1:7-12. That night God
appeared to Solomon and said to him, "Ask for whatever you want me to give
you." 8 Solomon answered God, "You have shown great kindness to David
my father and have made me king in his place. 9 Now, Lord God, let your promise
to my father David be confirmed, for you have made me king over a people who
are as numerous as the dust of the earth. 10 Give me wisdom and knowledge, that
I may lead this people, for who is able to govern this great people of
yours?" 11 God said to Solomon, "Since this is your heart's desire
and you have not asked for wealth, riches or honour, nor for the death of your
enemies, and since you have not asked for a long life but for wisdom and
knowledge to govern my people over whom I have made you king, 12 therefore
wisdom and knowledge will be given you. And I will also give you wealth, riches
and honour, such as no king who was before you ever had and none after you will
have."
Solomon requested for wisdom and knowledge and God gave him,
not only did he give him wisdom and knowledge, he also included: riches, wealth
and honour. God included; riches, wealth and honor not because God was trying
to be nice, but because God want him to understand that it was not possible to
separated wealth, honour and riches from wisdom and knowledge. Therefore, God
gave him all of these, so that he could understand how to use it and be
successful. You may have something, if you don’t know how to use it; it won’t
produce or bring good result. So, God had to tell him.
This wisdom and knowledge I am talking about is not of this
world; I am talking of spiritual wisdom and knowledge, the wisdom and knowledge
of God, the one that created all things, the wisdom that was before anything
was created. Josh 1:8-9, Do not let this Book of the Law depart from your
mouth; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do
everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful.
As soon as you start meditating on the word of God, you will
start having revelation and guide to your part, career etc. This is the secret
of the ancient and the modern real successful people of the world.
