The students will be able to explain, using the example of Moses’ mother, that when they have a need they can safely commit it to the Lord, and be assured that God will supply the need if it is in harmony with His will.

The students will be able to explain that Solomon made a wise choice when he asked for wisdom from God, and that it was granted to him. They will recognize the importance of seeking godly wisdom in their own lives.
