Ecclesiastes ep.13: Strength in Humility
This past weekend’s message, “Strength in Humility” from Ecclesiastes 9:13-18, reminded us that the quietest voice in the room is often the wisest. Solomon paints the picture of a poor but wise man whose actions saved a city—yet no one remembered him. His story is a powerful reminder that God doesn’t measure greatness the way the world does.
“Wisdom is better than strength… Wisdom is better than weapons of war, but one sinner can destroy much good.” (Ecclesiastes 9:16,18)
Key Takeaways from the Message:
- Humble wisdom outweighs flashy power. Influence rooted in humility often goes unnoticed, but it’s what truly shapes lives.
- Quiet obedience matters. Even when the world doesn’t applaud, God honors the one who walks humbly and wisely.
- One moment of foolishness can undo much good. Solomon’s reflection ends with a warning that leads us straight into what’s next…
Coming This Weekend: When Small Choices Leave a Lasting Impact
We’ll step into Ecclesiastes 10:1 with a message that shows how even tiny moments of foolishness can outweigh wisdom and honor.
In Solomon’s words, “Dead flies make a perfumer’s oil ferment and stink…”
Translation? Small compromises can have big consequences.
Join us as we explore how to guard our hearts and live wisely, even in the little things that can carry lasting weight.
We’re looking forward to seeing you this weekend as we continue learning how to walk in wisdom—one step at a time.
