Solomon wealth

: InSpired

 Solomon’s Splendor 10:14-28* 

" The weight of the gold that Solomon received yearly was 666 talents, not including the 

revenues from merchants and traders and from all the Arabian kings and the governors of the territories.

Revenues can either come from tributes given to Solomon for provision of weapons, protection etc. So Solomon was operating in the realms of producing goods and services for nations.

He was a seed of Abraham and had access  to wealth via covenant converted into earthly richess.

Who says our influence and impact has to be limited to Nigeria and the Church .

Who says one person has to start a University and others follow instead of getting their own original ideas assigned to them from the Spirit.

King Solomon made two hundred large shields of hammered gold; six hundred shekels of gold went into each shield. He also made three hundred small shields of hammered gold, with three minas of gold in each shield. 

Solomon was in the manufacturing industry. Sometimes it pains me when the best example we can site during Church services is the wealth of Dangote in the manufacturing industry and all we attribute to the church is our cathedrals. I got to be serious as a steward of the resources God has given me. Christ is depending on me in this generation.

The king had a fleet of trading ships at sea along with the ships of Hiram. Once every three years it returned, carrying gold, silver and ivory, and apes and baboons. Solomon was also into import and export business.... King Solomon was greater in riches and wisdom than all the other kings of the earth. The whole world sought audience with Solomon to hear the wisdom God had put in his heart. 

Solomon had mental power sought by world leaders. He had fame. He sat with leaders of nations of the world- OLD TESTAMENT SAINT

 Year after year, everyone who came brought a gift —articles of silver and gold, robes, weapons and spices, and horses and mules. 

Solomon like some preachers in this generation got monetary gifts but the difference between them is Solomon re- invested the gifts, he got into the defence and security industry, the economic... In essence, Solomon diversified in his investment

Solomon accumulated chariots and horses; he had fourteen hundred chariots and twelve thousand horses, which he kept in the chariot cities and also with him in Jerusalem. 

Terrorism during Solomon time dare not make a noise, they submitted to Solomon by fire by fire because he had superior military power.

The king made silver as common in Jerus.    

Solomon was not the only one that was rich, the citizenry of his nation were rich..

The anointing flowed from him to the people..
