Scripture: 19: 1-3.

The poem "Set Your Heart"

Meditate:

As mentioned above, Jehoshaphat has great glory and wealth, so he married Ahab. At the invitation of Ahab, he went with Ahab to attack Aram. King Ahab was killed in the war, and Jehoshaphat returned to Jerusalem safely because of God's mercy.

After Jehoshaphat returned to Jerusalem safely, God sent a prophet to blame him for helping the wicked and loving those who hate the Lord. Therefore, the wrath of the Lord will come upon him. However, he still has good deeds, because he removed the puppet from the land and devoted himself to seeking God.

The Lord God is a loving and compassionate God, but he is also a holy and righteous God, and he will not hold the guilty innocent. The idea of the Lord is the idea of blessing, not the idea of disaster. He rebukes or judges people and turns them away from evil and turns to him.

Jehoshaphat was a king who devoted himself to seeking the Lord, but he was also weak and did things that God did not like. It can be seen that people are completely corrupt and there is nothing to talk about. If there is any good deed, it is also out of God's mercy and conservatism. Thanks to God's grace, when Jehoshaphat did something that God didn't like, God didn't abandon him, but blamed him through the prophet. Jehoshaphat listened to the prophet's rebuke, made a wise choice and relied on God wholeheartedly again.

In the future, I will learn to accept the weakness of others, humble myself and rely on the Lord wholeheartedly.

In life, we should look at the people around us with God's eyes and always look at ourselves. If we do something wrong, we should confess our sins to God and repent quickly, and make up our minds to follow the Lord.
