2 Kings 10
ALL THE WAY

Jehu had done well in getting rid of the worship of Baal from the land of Israel. Even God was pleased. This was God’s message to Jehu: “Because you have done well in carrying out what is right in my eyes, and have done to the house of Ahab according to all that was in my heart, your sons of the forth generation shall sit on the throne of Israel.” (2 Kings 10 v 30 ESV).

While Jehu obeyed the LORD in removing Ahab and Baal worship from Israel, he didn’t go all the way. “But Jehu did not turn aside from the sins of Jereboam son of Nebat, which he made Israel to sin – that is, the golden calves that were in Bethel and Dan… But Jehu was not careful to walk in the law of the LORD, the God of Israel with all his heart. He did not turn from the sins of Jerebaom which he made Israel to sin.” (v 29, 31).

If we are going to turn to the LORD in any part of our lives, let’s do it properly and not leave the job half done. Let’s devote ourselves to the LORD with all our hearts.

May our love and devotion be pleasing to God this week.

With love in our Lord,
Robert
