8th Year 12-14 Edition 3 –II Kings 11 l The Feast l God awesome and true! – 2 Kings 11             Jan 27, 2013 - 2 Kings 11 Return to Admenu Home Dear  Saints, Today we are prayerfully reading, 2 Kings 11.  Athaliah kills all the known line of David and usurps the government of Judah.  Jehoash who was hidden from her and is made king.  Athaliah Is cast out like Satan from power.  Athaliah is put to death.   The worship of the Lord restored when God picks the seven year old to be king.  “21 Jehoash was seven years old when he began to reign.“  2nd Kings 11:21 English - Standard Version (ESV).  Sometimes we are quick to complain about our leadership even in a society where we choose our own leaders.  I’m here to let you know that God chooses our leaders according to how we serve the Lord.  Some may say that “money” makes the choice, but God’s Word say’s it is God.  “5 Lift not up your horn on high: speak not with a stiff neck. 6 For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south. 7 But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another.“  Psalm 75:5-7 King James Version (KJV).  How does this affect you and I saint?  If you really don’t know take a look at the Israelites and where their complaining got them as they were led by Moses in the wilderness.  If we really want a change in leadership we must turn to God!  That’s what God’s Word say’s. “14 if my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land.” 2 Chronicles 7:14 ESV.  We are not supposed to complain about our leaders or make them the butt of our jokes.  Think twice about what you have to say as a child of God.  Let your speech glorify God because you are the light of the world.  “For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm.” Ephesians 6:12-13 ESV.  This means that we should be thankful to God even whenever and wherever He his will is done.   Understand that Jesus keep his own.  Along with that keep the first thing first. This is salvation through the blood of our Lord Jesus.  You can be assured our awesome God never changes.  He is eternally true and true to us as his children.    The Feast Sun, January 27, 2013, 2 Kings 10, - “Athaliah usurps the government of Judah, Jehoash made king.

Covering sin?

8th Year 12-14 Edition 3 –II Kings 10 l The Feast l Covering sin? – 2 Kings 10             Jan 26, 2013 - 2 Kings 10 Return to Admenu Home Dear  Saints, Today we are prayerfully reading, 2 Kings 10.  For their sins Ahab's sons and Ahaziah's brethren are put to death.  Because they were sinning and worshipping false gods, Jehu destroys the worshippers of Baal.   Jehu follows Jeroboam's sins so the Lord begins to cut Israel apart; “32 In those days the Lord began to cut off parts of Israel. Hazael defeated them throughout the territory of Israel: 33 from the Jordan eastward, all the land of Gilead, the Gadites, and the Reubenites, and the Manassites, from Aroer, which is by the Valley of the Arnon, that is, Gilead and Bashan. 34 Now the rest of the acts of Jehu and all that he did, and all his might, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel? 35 So Jehu slept with his fathers, and they buried him in Samaria. And Jehoahaz his son reigned in his place. 36 The time that Jehu reigned over Israel in Samaria was twenty-eight years.“  2nd Kings 10:32-36 English - Standard Version (ESV).  Jehu seemed to be a zealous follower of God as he rooted out the idolaters.  Then he doesn’t follow through, living a righteous life, he falls into the sin of his father.  Remember this; There are no small sins, no white lies, sin is like cancer in that it grows and spreads until it consumes an individual and finally a nation.  “Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will exalt you.” James 4:10 ESV. We begin a good work in the Lord; we need to finish the race, in good grace.  Jesus did not cleanse us of sin in order for us to fall back into it.  When you sin turn to Jesus right away and ask for forgiveness.  There are no small sins just as there is no small cancer.  If your doctor finds cancer in your system, he doesn’t ignore it, saying; “It’s a small cancer, don’t even worry about it.  Sin is like rust, when you find it you don’t merely paint over it.  If you cover it rather than removing it first it spreads under the paint.  Confess your sin to Jesus and ask him to remove it from you.  Keep the first thing first. This is salvation through the blood of our Lord Jesus.  The only way to triumph over sin is to ask Jesus to forgive you and cut it out of your life.  It’s up to you to turn from the sin once Jesus sets you free.
