1 Kings 16:31-33 NASB
(31)
It
came about, as though it had been a trivial thing for him to walk in the sins
of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, that he married Jezebel the daughter of Ethbaal
king of the Sidonians, and went to serve Baal and worshiped him.
(32)
So
he erected an altar for Baal in the house of Baal, which he built in Samaria.
(33)
Ahab
also made the Asherah. Thus, Ahab did
more to provoke the LORD God of Israel than all the kings of Israel who were
before him.
There
is no limit to the depth of sinfulness. Check
out verse 33. Ahab provoked the Lord God. God is the same yesterday, today and
tomorrow. Deu. 6:15 states that God is a
jealous God and we should have no other Gods.
He also goes on to say that, this will kindle His anger and He will destroy
that person from the face of the earth.
Ahab
had a desire to do evil. There are
people today who have that same desire.
It
is time we take God at His word. As we
start a new year, we need to realize the seriousness of sin and make a conscious
effort to obey God.
