16
Dear Saints,
Today we join together and prayerfully read, 1 Kings 16. The reigns of Baasha and Elah
are shortened because they led Israel to sin against the Lord God. They worshipped false gods and idols. Zimri and Omri were plagued with fighting against
one another. Ahab (not the captain
that chased the white whale) was filled with wickedness. Hiel rebuilds Jericho, at the cost of his
son’s lives. “33
And Ahab made an Asherah. Ahab did more to provoke the Lord, the God of
Israel, to anger than all the kings of Israel who were before him. 34 In his
days Hiel of Bethel built Jericho. He laid its foundation at the cost of
Abiram his firstborn, and set up its gates at the cost of his youngest son
Segub, according to the word of the Lord, which he spoke by Joshua the son of
Nun.” 1 Kings 16:33-34. English
Standard Version (ESV). Listen
fathers you are responsible for your family. Christian men aren’t responsible after they
are raised. We need to teach them to keep
God’s commandments and follow Jesus. “but as he who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your
conduct, since it is written, “You shall be holy, for I am holy.”” 1
Peter 1:15-16 ESV. Put Jesus first, it
is your responsibility as the head of the family! If you are not a responsible father talk to
Jesus, ask him to forgive you. Then keep
the first thing first. That is salvation through the blood of our Lord Jesus. Fathers you are the head of your
house. God will hold you (not your
wife) responsible so, man-up in Jesus!

“[Lay Up Treasures in Heaven] “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures
on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal,
but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust
destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure
is, there your heart will be also.” Matthew 6:19-21 ESV
