Saturday May 22, 2021 “One Thing”
2 Kings 15:4-5 “4 except that the high places were not removed; the people still sacrificed and burned incense on the high places. 5 Then the Lord struck the king, so that he was a leper until the day of his death; so he dwelt in an isolated house. And Jotham the king’s son was over the royal house, judging the people of the land.” Azariah did … Continue reading

2 Kings 15:3-4 “3 And he did what was right in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father Amaziah had done, 4 except that the high places were not removed; the people still sacrificed and burned incense on the high places.” Azariah did much good however he failed to do away with idolatry. Many fear the fact that … Continue reading

2 Kings 15:2-3 “2 He was sixteen years old when he became king, and he reigned fifty-two years in Jerusalem.

2 Kings 14:29 & 15:1 “29 So Jeroboam rested with his fathers, the kings of Israel. Then Zechariah his son reigned in his place.” “1 In the twenty-seventh year of Jeroboam king of Israel, Azariah the son of Amaziah, king of Judah, became king.” We have prayed this previously, but it is a prayer worth repeating.

2 Kings 14:28 “ Now the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, and all that he did—his might, how he made war, and how he recaptured for Israel, from Damascus and Hamath, what had belonged to Judah—are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?” Jeroboam recovered territory for not only Israel but also … Continue reading

2 Kings 14:27 “27 And the Lord did not say that He would blot out the name of Israel from under heaven; but He saved them by the hand of Jeroboam the son of Joash.” Due to the antics of Jeroboam, one might think that God might blot out the name of Israel but “God’s mercy endures forever.” … Continue reading

2 Kings 14:23-24 “In the fifteenth year of Amaziah the son of Joash, king of Judah, Jeroboam the son of Joash, king of Israel, became king in Samaria, and reigned forty-one years. 24 And he did evil in the sight of the Lord; he did not depart from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who had made Israel … Continue reading

2 Kings 14:23 “23 In the fifteenth year of Amaziah the son of Joash, king of Judah, Jeroboam the son of Joash, king of Israel, became king in Samaria, and reigned forty-one years.” Jeroboam had a long run as monarch that was marked by evil and destruction. Pray that America will see the value of fresh eyes to … Continue reading
Thursday May 13, 2021 “Elath”
2 Kings 14:21-22 “21 And all the people of Judah took Azariah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king instead of his father Amaziah. 22 He built Elathand restored it to Judah, after the king rested with his fathers.” The victory of one city Elath, did not fulfil the total leadership qualifications of being king. The same applies to America’s leaders. … Continue reading
