1 Kings 14: Learing from Bad Leaders (and How Not to Be One)

Last updated on: March 5, 2013 at 10:46 am   By Dillon Burroughs

22 Judah did evil in the eyes of the Lord. By the sins they committed they stirred up his jealous anger more than those who were before them had done. 23 They also set up for themselves high places, sacred stones and Asherah poles on every high hill and under every spreading tree. 24 There were even male shrine prostitutes in the land; the people engaged in all the detestable practices of the nations the Lord had driven out before the Israelites. -1... Read more

Last updated on: March 1, 2013 at 10:21 am   By Dillon Burroughs

33 Even after this, Jeroboam did not change his evil ways, but once more appointed priests for the high places from all sorts of people. Anyone who wanted to become a priest he consecrated for the high places. 34 This was the sin of the house of Jeroboam that led to its downfall and to its destruction from the face of the earth. -1 Kings 13:33-34 Why did God destroy his own kingdom?

22 But this word of God came to Shemaiah the man of God: 23 “Say to Rehoboam son of Solomon king of Judah, to all Judah and Benjamin, and to the rest of the people, 24 ‘This is what the Lord says: Do not go up to fight against your brothers, the Israelites.

1 Kings 11: When a Heart Turns Away from God

Last updated on: February 28, 2013 at 7:19 am   By Dillon Burroughs

9 The Lord became angry with Solomon because his heart had turned away from the Lord, the God of Israel, who had appeared to him twice. 10 Although he had forbidden Solomon to follow other gods, Solomon did not keep the Lord’s command. -1 Kings 11:9-10 Despite Solomon’s great accomplishments, history records the dark side of Israel’s most prosperous leader. In 1 Kings 11, we read about his numerous wives (700!) who eventually led Solomon to follow other gods. The key concern... Read more

Indeed, not even half was told me; in wisdom and wealth you have far exceeded the report I heard. 8 How happy your people must be!
