The bible reading for today is in 1 Kings 15:25-16:34 and 2 Chronicles 17.
Asa, the great-grandson of Solomon, was king over the tribes of Judah and Benjamin in the days of the divided kingdom. He ruled 41 years and was known for being used of God in bringing spiritual revival to Judah.
Asa’s father, Abijam, had a divided heart toward God. He trusted God sometimes and trusted himself most of the time. Because he refused to eliminate the high places of worship of foreign gods, he laid a spiritual stumbling block before the people he was to lead. He died. Then Asa his son took the throne of Judah.
“The Spirit of God came upon Azariah the son of Oded, and he went out to meet Asa and said to him, "Hear me, Asa, and all Judah and Benjamin: The Lord is with you while you are with him. If you seek him, he will be found by you, but if you forsake him, he will forsake you.”
