God used Jehu, a leader He had selected, to enact revenge upon wicked King Ahab and his insidious wife, Jezebel. God carefully kept record of their deeds, then orchestrated their demise for all to see.

We are tempted to take matters into our own hands, but only God sees the entire picture and is justified in the way He doles out punishments.

DAILY PRAYER: Father, forgive me for thoughts of revenge. Actually, I pray that Your mercy and forgiveness will prevail in the lives of those who have done me wrong.

DAILY READING:  2 Kings 7-9
