2 Kings 1:1-18
King of Israel, Ahaziah had fallen through the lattice of
his upper room in Samaria and injured himself. He sent messengers, saying to
them, ”Go and consult Baal-Zebub the god of Ekron, to see if I will recover
from this injury.”
The word of the Lord came to Elijah, and sent message to
Ahaziah, “This is what the Lord says: Is
it because there is no God in Israel that your are sending men to consult
Baal-Zubub, the god of Ekron? Therefore you will certainly die!”
King of Israel sent two captains and his fifty people to ask
Elijah come down with them with order. Elijah replied “If I am a man of God,
may fire come down from heaven and consume you and your fifty men!” Fire of God
fell from heaven and consumed his and his fifty men.
Third time captain with his 50 men went up and fell on his
knees before Elijah, asked Elijah respect for his life. Then Elijah went with
them when the angle of the Lord said to Elijah.
Why?
When king of Israel does not have the Lord in his heart, the
blessing will not come upon his country and his family.
Even the prophet and the servant of the Lord should be
respected, for they are the messengers of the Lord. Usually they have not much
property, but with the blessing and words of the Lord.
How?
He is the Lord, the Lord is exists in everywherein the
world and he is in our heart if we believed in him.
Is it because there is no God in here?
