READ: Ecclesiastes 2:4-9
“I made me great works; I builded me houses; I planted me vineyards: I made me gardens and orchards, and I planted trees in them of all kind of fruits: I made me pools of water, to water therewith the wood that bringeth forth trees:” – Ecclesiastes 2:4-6
If you are wise as a serpent you will be a master of your own life and will not need anyone to build things for you. Your wisdom will lead you to rise up and build for yourself. This is why a man is said to be wise when he has built things. The inability to build reveals the lack of wisdom. If you are wise as a serpent you will rise up and build the things you need.
Solomon built many things himself. He built houses, planted vineyards, made gardens and orchards and planted trees of all kinds of fruits and made pools. A pastor who runs a church expecting someone to come along and build a building for him is incapable of mature, non-dependent leadership.

If you are wise as a serpent you will not ask for gifts, loans and continually beg for assistance. You must not ask for gifts or beg for money. When you are as wise as a serpent you know that you are on your own from day one. Every serpent knows this. You must rise up and meet the challenges, knowing that others have encountered the same challenges and were able to overcome. There is a canal in the United States of America that was built in 1825. It was built without engineers and dug out manually by about five thousand workers. The canal provided amazingly cheap transportation from the middle of America to the coast. New York City boomed and by 1840 there were many millionaires in that city. This wealth did not come to America by receiving gifts and handouts from outside. It came by the hard work of people who did not look for help from outside.
