Today’s reading: 2 Kings 9:1-10:27
As we arrive at 2 Kings 9 Jehu is anointed king of Israel, and what immediately follows is deadly violence. I find passages like these extremely difficult to read, understand and accept–even knowing that this account is from a much different time period where customs, traditions, practices and laws were nothing like what we follow today. Nevertheless, it’s part of God’s Word as well as biblical history which means I need to know about it and look for lessons from it.
There was one word that kept going through my mind as I read this heavy passage–SIN. Sin is powerful, far-reaching and always has consequences.
What are some of the spiritual consequences when we choose to sin? What helps you keep your focus on God and following His ways? Tami
