P.S. I don’t know why the devos became published out of order. It is now 1:50 a.m. on Wednesday, Jan. 17, 2018

Athaliah was the daughter of Ahab and murdered every potential heir to the throne to eliminate competition. She ruled as Ahab did … in evil.

One of her sons, Joash, had been spared, protected, and hidden, unknown to her. When he was revealed as the rightful king, she cried “Treason, treason.” As unjustified as she was, she still attempted to illegitimize the rightful heir of power through her own insidious grab for power and slanderous accusations.

Everyone who wants power does not deserve it.

PRAYER; Father in Heaven, protect and fortify Your chosen leaders. Give them the courage and humility to stay faithful to their rightful appointment.
