What would you ask for… if God gave you a blank check?

 

In 1 Kings 3, God appears to Solomon and says: “Ask for whatever you want me to give you.”

 

No limits. No restrictions.

 

And Solomon’s answer?

 

He doesn’t ask for wealth.


He doesn’t ask for power.


He doesn’t ask for comfort.

 

He asks for a discerning heart.

 

In this episode of The Alpha Edge Podcast, Coach Kevin breaks down one of the most powerful moments in Scripture—and what it reveals about the kind of man you’re becoming.

 

Because here’s the truth…

 

Most men are asking for a better life… when they should be asking to become a better man.

 

IN THIS EPISODE, YOU’LL DISCOVER:

  • Why Solomon’s request in 1 Kings 3 separates him from almost every modern man
  • The hidden “blank check test” every man is taking—whether he realizes it or not
  • How your current results reflect what you’ve been asking for
  • The real reason most men feel stuck (hint: it’s not a lack of motivation)
  • Why discernment—not discipline—is the missing link for most men over 50
  • How modern culture is conditioning men for comfort instead of strength
  • A simple, practical framework to develop a discerning heart in your daily life
  • The one question that will instantly reveal your current level as a man

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

Your requests reveal your priorities.
What you consistently ask for shapes the man you become.

Wisdom > resources.
Without discernment, more money, time, or opportunity won’t fix your life.

Leadership requires clarity.
If you can’t distinguish right from wrong, you can’t lead—period.

You don’t need more… you need better.
More discipline. More honesty. More ownership.

Discernment is built—not gifted.
It’s forged through daily decisions, not downloaded overnight.

FINAL THOUGHT

God may not show up in a dream tonight… but every single day, life is asking you the same question: “What kind of man are you becoming?”

 

Let’s get after it.
