If you could meet any giant of the faith, who would it be?
In a stunning heavenly encounter, prophetic voice Micah Turnbo shared a moment that left a lasting impression—not just for its supernatural awe, but for the sobering wisdom it carried.
In an interview on Jennifer Bagnaschi’s Deeper Believer, Turnbo detailed his fascinating encounter that took place in the heavenly realm. Turnbo says he met King Solomon, the wisest man to walk the earth apart from Christ, seated at a table with other kings from various nations and eras. But it wasn’t the grandeur of royalty that marked the moment—it was Solomon’s confession.

“All that wisdom that I gained, that I thought was valuable,” Turnbo recounted Solomon saying, “Nothing. Everything is meaningless. He is truth. He is all. He’s everything.”
That “He” is Jesus. Solomon—who amassed not only wisdom and wealth but also hundreds of wives and concubines—made a candid admission in heaven that stunned Turnbo: that his pursuits, even those backed by supernatural wisdom, became vanity because they were centered on things outside of God.
“He said, ‘It allowed me to chase after things that just didn’t matter,’” Turnbo shared. “It became vanity. It became meaningless.”
For those familiar with Solomon’s story in 1 Kings and Ecclesiastes, this reflection echoes Scripture. Despite starting his reign with divine wisdom and building the majestic Temple of the Lord, Solomon’s heart turned as he grew older, drawn away by his many wives who worshipped foreign gods. His own writings in Ecclesiastes mourn the futility of worldly pursuits: “Meaningless! Meaningless! … Everything is meaningless” (Eccl. 1:2).

But Turnbo’s encounter gives a personal, post-mortem glimpse into that regret—spoken from heaven itself. It’s a reminder that not even divine wisdom is a substitute for wholehearted devotion to God.
This moment serves as a sobering call for today’s believers: wisdom, status, success—even spiritual gifts—mean nothing if they lead us away from the simplicity of loving Jesus. Turnbo’s heavenly vision reveals that even the wisest among us can get lost when they shift their eyes from the One who is truth.
In the end, it’s not success, knowledge or even legacy that matters—it’s Him. Jesus is the only pursuit that will echo in eternity.

It’s Really fantastic how he HONORS the LORD JESUS CHRIST by telling the TRUTH and nothing BUTthe TRUTH!! And how he applies 1John 4:1 by testing the spirits to see if they are really from GOD. A GREAT EXAMPLE OF BIBLICAL DISCERNMENT THAT EVERYONE SHOULD FOLLOW HIS EXAMPLE.!!!!!
