The Next of
the Kings is Abijah. Abijah = (my father is God -"yahweh")
Abijah is
known for doing one thing. He wages war against Jeroboam, (Jeroboam = "he pleads the people's cause.”)
Why
was he waging war against the northern king? Aren’t they all jewish blood? Yes,
he was focused on the Kingdom as a whole. Like Abijah, we Have a right
to stand up against an Ungodly leader, but we must know who our daddy is, and follow
Him.
Abijah
knew who his daddy was. His desire wasn't only for a new Godly ruler, but also
unification of the People of God. I often wonder how this beautiful short story
gets missed. The church is divided, and we are in desperate need for more
Abijahs to rise and cry out that we must re-unite not for our rule sake, but
for the sake of the Kingdom. A simple question, do you desire to help re-unite
it? Or do you wage war unjustly?
When
Abijah couldn't rid of Jeraboam, he fell prey to other Gods. So, in our lives
and the division between denominations, do we get upset with division and follow
the "God of tradition? or do we push on for unity for the sake of the
Kingdom?
One of my
old Professors coined “The Summary of the Bible.”
"The
Lord God is Graciously building a kingdom of Redeemed people for their Joy and
His Glory."
