Upside down kings. Two gifts of wisdom, one temple. In 1 Kings, we see Solomon ask God for wisdom, and he gets it. He gets a lot of it. And we watch that gift of wisdom be put to work in chapter five, six, and seven. Solomon plans it, prepares it, and starts to build it. But I don't think actually Solomon's picking up a hammer and building it. There's this guy. Check this out. 1 Kings seven, thirteen, and fourteen. Solomon goes and hires a guy named Huram from Tyre. He was the son of a widow, and, he was a bronze worker filled with wisdom and understanding and skilled in working with all kinds of bronze. So he came to King Solomon and did all of his work. Same gift. It's the same gift of wisdom. For Solomon, it was different. For Huram, it was skilled to build all of these little ornaments and pillars and lattice networks that you see in chapter seven. Lots of very intricate details. Same wisdom though, applied differently. I see another verse in the Bible that kinda pops out to me when it comes to working together."Where no oxen are, the trough is clean, but much increase comes by the strength of the ox." You could keep your stall clean by working alone, or you could bring in the strength of others and get a harvest. I think a lot of times the core message here is this, is God gives gifts for us to use to produce fruit, to produce a harvest. The first mandate is be fruitful and multiply. I think that multiplication is also in our work, our mandate, and using our gifts through through worship, through work, through service for others, but it produces fruit. So I think the core message here is don't look at other people's gifts and say, "I wish I had that." Look to the creator and the gift giver and say, "I wanna be more like you. What gift do you have for me, and how do I apply that?"
