1 Kings 12
Inspired thots
Rehoboam, Solomon's son, preferred to hear advice that makes him feel strong and mighty which impose hardship on the people he ruled. Disrespect was thus stirred from his erroneous ways. Rehoboam did not choose to be humble before the people and God when he ascended to his throne. Hence, his pride caused his downfall.
On the other hand, Jeroboam was chosen by God to be Israel's king breaking up the kingdom of David. Yet, he feared people going back to Rehoboam and plotted to stay their hearts by making idols for them to worship. Sigh! The things man does to keep fame and power for themselves instead of honouring God.
