Daily Fountain Devotional 9 August 2022 MESSAGE
Kingdoms (I Kings 12). One was called Israel, occasionally Ephraim; the other was called Judah. They were known also as Northern and Southern kingdoms respectively. When the Northern kingdom sinned against God and refused to repent, God allowed them to be carried into exile.
Judah did not learn any lesson from the experience of Israel, she committed sin which provoked God to anger. They too were carried into exile. While in exile, they lost hope; they thought God had forsaken them and they were saying, “Our bones are dry, our hope is lost…” (v.11).
God now promised that the two kingdoms would be reunited as one kingdom, with one king ruling over them. The Northern kingdom, Israel, and the Southern kingdom, Judah, would become one kingdom. The king to rule over them be the descendant of David and the fulfilment of Davidic covenant (II Sam. 7:16).
This Person is Jesus Christ, the Lion of the tribe of Judah.Today’s passage shows that God’s anger does not last forever. Even while He is angry with His people because of their sins, God still has good plan for their restoration.
What God requires from a sinner is total repentance and confession of sins. “Behind a frowning providence, He hides a smiling face” (A&M 181:4, lines 3&4).
PRAYER: Pray that God will help you rise from where you have fallen short of His glory.
