Choosing what is wrong. |
Lesson |
Sin is not something thrust upon us, but, ultimately, something we choose to do. |
Memory Verse |
"The face of the LORD is against them that do evil, to cut off the remembrance
of them from the earth" (Psalm 34:16). |
Application |
As Christians, we must not allow sinful pride or desire to turn us away from following
the godly examples of men and women that the Lord has brought into each of our lives.
We can do no better than strive to live according to how these men and women
of God have shown us. |
Spiritual Epitaph |
"But they (Israel) mocked the messengers of God, and despised his words, and misused
his prophets, until the wrath of the LORD arose against his people, till there was no
remedy" (II Chronicles 36:16). |
This son of Josiah had the opportunity to do good; however he chose not to take
his father's lead. Though he had the shining
example of the revered Josiah to emulate, Jehoahaz obstinately refused, thus bringing
on the final downfall of his people.
