2 Kings 1You would think that after losing 102 men to the power of God — Ahaziah would stop trying to strong-arm Elijah. But his rebellion against the LORD had blinded him of reality. Even though he was facing God’s judgment, he continued to try to work out things in his favor. Our God is a consuming fire, and he will not be manipulated. At least the third commander had the wisdom to treat the prophet with reverence.
LORD, give us wisdom to truly seek your favor, not to try to manipulate you for our gain.
