Christopher Dodge","episode_count":1091,"summary":"Awake Us Now is a body of believers who: WORSHIP the Triune God with all our heart, soul, mind and strength. Praise Him with joy and thanksgiving for He is God and He is good; WALK by faith in the power of the Holy Spirit. This is the clear teaching of our Lord Jesus Christ and the clear declaration of the Scriptures. Such a daily walk is a far cry from mere religion or \"church as usual;\" WITNESS to Jesus Christ our Savior in daily life situations. Take seriously His call to make disciples. Be alert to the opportunities God provides to encourage and mentor others in the Christian life. Utilize the developing technologies to reach a new generation with the timeless Gospel of Christ.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-14T06:18:15.568208+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/awake-us-now-3481"},"episode":{"title":"Kings & Prophets: From Solomon to Jeremiah - Week 3","slug":"kings-prophets-from-solomon-to-jeremiah-week-3","published_at":"2026-06-05T07:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/awake-us-now-3481/kings-prophets-from-solomon-to-jeremiah-week-3","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/awake-us-now-3481","url":"https://awakeusnow.libsyn.com/kings-prophets-from-solomon-to-jeremiah-week-3","audio_url":"https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/awakeusnow/Kings__Prophets__From_Solomon_to_Jeremiah_-_Week_3.mp3?dest-id=246214","summary":"Solomon: Builder ⁃ Temple construction - 1 Kings 6 (took 7 years to build) ⁃ Temple dedication - 1 Kings 8 ⁃ God appears to Solomon - 1 Kings 9 ⁃ Solomon's palace - 1 Kings 7 (took 13 years to build) Pastor shares archeological discoveries around Solomon in recent years including a massive stone wall and gate and more. Solomon: Reputation ⁃ Fleet at Ezion Geber - 1 Kings (for the first time Israel had its own navy - 1 Kings 9:26-28 - we read that they brought gold from Ophir. Pastor shares ideas of where Ophir may have been.) ⁃ Solomon's wealth - 1 King 10 (1 Kings 10:14-15 we read he received 25 tons of gold yearly. Solomon brought financial wealth to the nation.) ⁃ Queen of Sheba - 1 Kings 10 (Pastor shared the ideas of where this queen came from to visit Solomon. She's overwhelmed by Solomon's wisdom and by the wealth that she sees in her visit. Yet we know there is a wisdom and wealth greater than gold and that is our Lord Jesus Christ. Matthew 12:42 tells us … Jesus says, \"for the Queen at the South ….came from the ends of the earth to listen to Solomon's wisdom, and now something greater than Solomon is here.\" That something is a Someone and that Someone is Jesus, Himself. It is easy to fall into the trap of wanting stuff and being financially secure. And we can have everything the world has to offer and still be bankrupt if we don't have a relationship with the living God through faith in Jesus.) ⁃ Solomon's Wisdom - 1 Kings 10 (1 Kings 10:23-24 we read he was greater in riches and wisdom than all the other kings of the earth. He wrote Ecclesiastes and Song of Solomon and also some Psalms as well.) ⁃ Labor Policies - 1 King 5 (Soloon had labor practices that caused difficulties with his people - 1 Kings 5:13-14 we read that 30,000 men were under forced labor.)
