Lesson taught by Will, notes taken by dErK
Lies
Will told as story about a parent and child
The child could not see the problem they had, but the parent could
2 Kings 14
1-4
A good king? but the high places were not removed
Israel Kings :Jehoahaz -> Joash
Judah Kings : Joash -> Amaziah
5-7
Amaziah is doing well taking over places.. avenges his father, but follows the laws written by Moses to not kill the sons of those that did wrong.. to let their own sins kill them
8-14
Amaziah Defeated.. really bit off more than they could chew
15-21
Israel Kings :Jehoahaz -> Joash -> Jeroboam
Judah Kings : Joash -> Amaziah -> Azariah
23-29
Israel Kings :Jehoahaz -> Joash -> Jeroboam -> Zechariah
Judah Kings : Joash -> Amaziah -> Azariah
Now that the history lesson is over
let us remember that the high places were not removed
to the kid.. it is not a big deal.. but the parent sees it .. and it is a big deal
God wants those high places removed.. the ARE a problem!
We need a 'God' perspective in our live
Hebrews 10:24-26
New International Version (NIV)24 And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, 25 not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.
26 If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left,
So cool to be in this group and be sharing, challenging, and holding one another accountable: but are we hiding anything.. keeping something under wraps.
If you are hiding a sin... pushing it to the wayside.. admit it to someone you trust.. remove that high place.. and God can restore you properly!
