Key Verse<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

You only have I known of all the families of the earth: therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014Amos 3:2
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Key Verse Thought: <\/strong>Read the Key Verse. Have you ever known someone\nwho got away with doing something wrong? Does it seem fair when you get in\ntrouble for doing something wrong? Do you understand why it is that you may get\ninto trouble, but others seem to get away with doing the same kinds of things?\nOur Key Verse today may help to remind us that if we are a Christian, belonging\nto the Lord, we cannot get away with doing things that other people seem <\/em><\/strong>to\nget away with. God will discipline His people (see Hebrews 12:5-8).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Emphasis: <\/strong>To recognize that when God\u2019s people sin against Him, God\nwill discipline them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lesson Summary: <\/strong>In our last lesson, we remembered King Jehoshaphat \u2013 a very good king. Notice that the kings were compared back to King David to determine if they were good kings or bad kings.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this lesson, we will look at two more of Judah\u2019s kings. Notice that we only include the kings of Israel when they are directly involved with a king of Judah \u2013 for none of them were legitimate kings (because none were descendants of King David). We begin in this lesson with King Jehoram, son of good King Jehoshaphat. What a disappointment his son was! He rose up and killed all of his brothers, and he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel \u2013 for wicked King Ahab\u2019s daughter, Athaliah, was his wife. Remember that King Ahab was a very wicked king from Israel. Elijah sent a writing warning that King Jehoram would die of a sickness in his bowels because he rejected the Word of the Lord. King Jehoram died of a sickness in his bowels after reigning for eight years.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

His son, Ahaziah, became king, reigning only one year. He, too, was a bad king \u2013 walking in the ways of the kings of Israel. Because of advice from bad counselors (including his mother, Athaliah), he helped the king of Israel in battle. The king of Israel was injured in battle. Because King Ahaziah visited the injured king of Israel at the same time God told Jehu to seek God\u2019s revenge upon the household of wicked King Ahab, King Ahaziah was killed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
