SHOW NOTES:
In Podcast Episode 269, “Where Can the Lord Find a Faithful Servant?“ Kim discusses the story of the faithful “man of God” who was called from Judah to confront the evil acts of King Jeroboam of Israel. What courage it took for this faithful servant to face off with Jeroboam in the midst of one of the two centers of pagan worship?
Our focal passage for this episode is 1 Kings 13:1-10 with verse 1 as the focal verse:
At the Lord’s command, a man of God from Judah went to Bethel, arriving there just as Jeroboam was approaching the altar to burn incense.
WEEKLY ASSIGNMENT FEATURE:
Prayerfully consider this question. “Can the Lord find a faithful servant in me?”
Additional Resources and Scriptures:
- 13 But all the priests and Levites living among the northern tribes of Israel sided with Rehoboam. 14 The Levites even abandoned their pasturelands and property and moved to Judah and Jerusalem, because Jeroboam and his sons would not allow them to serve the Lord as priests. 15 Jeroboam appointed his own priests to serve at the pagan shrines, where they worshiped the goat and calf idols he had made. 16 From all the tribes of Israel, those who sincerely wanted to worship the Lord, the God of Israel, followed the Levites to Jerusalem, where they could offer sacrifices to the Lord, the God of their ancestors. 17 This strengthened the kingdom of Judah, and for three years they supported Rehoboam son of Solomon, for during those years they faithfully followed in the footsteps of David and Solomon. 2 Chronicles 11:13-17
