Internal Relations with Sheba

International Relations With Sheba
‭I Kings 10:1, 3 NKJV‬
[1] Now when the queen of Sheba heard of the fame of Solomon concerning the name of the Lord, she came to test him with hard questions. 
[3] So Solomon answered all her questions; there was nothing so difficult for the king that he could not explain it to her. 

Lawrence Goodman in 2021 wrote these words about the Queen of Sheba. " The Queen of Sheba is only mentioned twice in the Bible, in 1 Kings 10:1-12 and 2 Chronicles 9:1-13. What do we learn about her?
The story is that she hears reports of King Solomon's fame and comes to visit him with gold and precious jewels and more spices than had ever been seen in Israel". The Sheba story is popular among the Jewish, Christian and Islamic religions. Her visit seems to have announced the birth of Solomon's international relations the rest of the world, and especially,Africa. The speciation is that she was Ethiopian. What is perhaps not written is the fact that there's a vestige of Jewish community in Ethiopia accredited to that visit. God will not just give you wisdom, He will link you with others of your kind. The fame of Solomon's wisdom spread even to Africa. God doesn't only give wisdom, God will give you international links and open doors. Solomon experienced it. You will not die uncelebrated. People will come for you. People will hear about what you have and they will look you. Doors are opened by God.  Today I pray for such open doors of opportunities across the land and oceans for you. Congratulations. Good morning.
