Today’s Turning Point With Dr. David Jeremiah 3rd August 2026 Daily Devotional Message
Read David Jeremiah Daily Devotional 3rd August 2026, Monday Turning Point Devotional Message
TOPIC: Seeking Wisdom
If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. James 1:5
RECOMMENDED READING: 1 Kings 3:4-14
Imagine you are facing the most daunting challenge of your life-and you feel totally unprepared to handle it. Then imagine God invites you to ask Him for anything you need. What would you ask Him for?
This was the experience of Solomon, David’s son, when he was about twenty years old and became king. What would you have felt as a twenty year old in Solomon’s position? God came to Solomon in a dream and told him to ask for whatever he needed (1 Kings 3:5). Solomon’s reply to God was humble and wise. He asked God for “an understanding heart” to be able to judge the people of Israel as king. Because Solomon did not ask for long life, riches, or victory over enemies, God granted his request and gave him “a wise and understanding heart” (1 Kings 3:9, 12).
The apostle James wrote that we have the same privilege-to ask God for wisdom whenever we need it. If you are facing a challenge in your life, ask God for wisdom and expect to receive it.

Of all the pursuits open to men, the search for wisdom is most perfect, more sublime, more profitable, and more full of joy.
