Judai was tired. He had been for weeks now and he felt like he was just going through the motions of life, day in, day out.

He yawned as he looked at himself in the mirror over the bathroom sink, the running water the only sound in the room.

He could see the window in the reflection of the mirror and saw how dark the outside still was, the sun not yet peeking out from the horizon.

Judai sighed and brushed his teeth, then showered. He got himself ready, making sure his reflection didn’t look as tired as he felt.

When he deemed himself ready for the day, he took one last look at himself then left so he could make breakfast before heading off to work.

He didn’t notice his reflection had stayed behind, watching him leave, a pair of gold eyes where his normally brown ones were.

Judai felt the exhaustion slowly at first. He was in his mid twenties and apparently still had a lot of life left inside him. But the last few weeks he hadn’t been getting much sleep and he felt like he was running on fumes. Constantly.

He looked at his tired reflection staring back at him, gold eyes searching, searching for an answer to all the exhaustion he had.

He chuckled to himself. He was so tired his eyes looked gold to him.

Jehoshaphat Reproved by Jehu

1 Jehoshaphat king of Judah returned to his house in Jerusalem safely.

2 Jehu son of Hanani, the seer, went out to meet King Jehoshaphat and said to him, “Should you help the wicked and love those who hate the Lord? Because of this, wrath from the Lord is upon you. 3 Nevertheless, good things are present in you, because you destroyed the Asherah poles from the land and have set your heart to seek God.”

Jehoshaphat Appoints Judges

4 Jehoshaphat ruled from Jerusalem.

He once again went out among the people, from Beersheba to the hill country of Ephraim, and brought them back to the Lord, the God of their fathers. 5 He appointed judges throughout the land in all the fortified cities of Judah, city by city.

6 He said to the judges, “Watch what you do, because you are not judging for the people, but for the Lord. He is with you as you judge. 7 Now may the dread of the Lord be upon you. Watch what you do, because there is no injustice, partiality, or taking bribes with the Lord our God.”

8 In Jerusalem too Jehoshaphat appointed men from the Levites, the priests, and the leading fathers of Israel to act as judges on behalf of the Lord and to settle disputes, and they presided in Jerusalem.

9 He commanded them:

This is how you are to conduct yourselves in the fear of the Lord, in faithfulness, and with your whole heart. 10 In every case concerning bloodshed, law, commands, statutes, or ordinances that comes to you from your brother Israelites who live in their cities, you will instruct them so that they will not incur guilt before the Lord, and so that wrath does not come upon you and upon your brothers. If you do this, you will not incur guilt.

11 Take note of this. Amariah the head priest is over you in all matters concerning the Lord. Zebadiah son of Ishmael is the governor for the house of Judah in all matters concerning the king. The Levites are officials for you. Act courageously. The Lord will be with those who do what is good. — 2 Chronicles 19 | Evangelical Heritage Version (EHV) The Holy Bible, Evangelical Heritage Version®, EHV®, © 2019 Wartburg Project, Inc.

The Greatness That Was Jezebel

The Greatness That Was Jezebel

The Seal of JezebelThe four letters in the seal, YZBLMeans: “(Belonging) to Jezebel” In 1962, H. W. F. Saggs published a book titled The Greatness That Was Babylon. The book summarizes the results of years of excavations in Mesopotamia which have produced a vast amount of information about ancient Babylonian civilization. According to Wikipedia, Saggs’s aim was “to reconstruct all aspects of this…

"Come with me, and see my zeal for the LORD": The zeal of Jehu was noted in his complete and energetic obedience to the LORD, to the disregard of his own safety and comfort. Yet this statement reveals the dangerous root of pride in Jehu – he is proud of his own zeal. [In fact,] his ostentatious display of his reforming zeal revealed how little he had God’s glory in mind in the midst of all his feverish activity and abolition— in sad contrast to Jesus, who always hid Himself and sought His Father’s glory only. He too had a zeal; but of what a different character from that of Jehu! “The zeal of thine house hath,[consumed] me,” He could say (John 2:17). But Jehu’s zeal, on the contrary, consumed and destroyed everybody and everything that stood in the way of his own advantage or aggrandizement, but never touched himself. [As such, although] Jehu carried out God’s will, [at heart] he did it for personal glory and out of pride, [and] he only did it partially: He stopped the idolatry of Baal, but he continued the sinful idolatry of Jeroboam. Jehu took no heed to walk in the law of the LORD God of Israel with all his heart... his half-commitment to God left [his] potential unfulfilled and points to a lack of any real relationship with God. [Ultimately,] the great lesson to be drawn from this remarkable man’s life is that of being constantly on guard, as servants of God, lest we be found doing His work– whether it be in the exercise of discipline, or the accomplishment of reformation– in a spirit of unbrokenness and without due exercise of heart and conscience between Him who is ‘a God of judgment,’ and by whom ‘actions are weighed.’

27 Bible Verses About Anointing

1 John 2:27As for you, the anointing which you received from Him abides in you, and you have no need for anyone to teach you; but as His anointing teaches you about all things, and is true and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you abide in Him.
