Day 190..."Solomon's wisdom established...The Spirit comes as does the Church"
Solomon prays for wisdom and the Lord grants his request. The controversy of which mother had the living child is a riveting story. Solomon' s wisdom prevails to find the real mother. He also is granted extravagant blessings by the Lord. Ecclesiastes also speaks of the virtue of wisdom..."Besides being wise, the Preacher also taught the people knowledge, weighing and studying and arranging many proverbs with great care. The Preacher sought to find words of delight, and uprightly he wrote words of truth." Acts 2 contains one of the most eventful chapters in the Bible. First...the coming of the Holy Spirit. Second...the speaking of other languages. Third...the accusation of being drunk in the early morning. Fourth...Peter's sermon that cut people to the heart. Fifth...a response of 3000 people. Sixth...the early Church's formation of breaking bread, praying together, teaching together, and fellowship. This model is still present in the modern day church. The model of Acts is still a great blueprint to design ministy today.

The book of "Acts" - The Acts of the Holy Spirit, the Apostles, the Church. God is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow.... should we not expect the same acts by the Holy Spirit filled people in the Church today? I heard someone say recently, if you want to fill up a church, raise the dead... Let us all pray for God to re-power His Church to make us more like the first Church in Acts.
