The Lasting Influence of Jeroboam

Jeroboam II, the fourteenth king of Israel, continued the downward spiral of disobedience of Jehovah's people.  Jehovah would send the prophets Amos and Hosea to seek to turn their hearts back to Him.  The influence of Jeroboam I was still strong, even one hundred-seventy years later.


"And he did evil in the sight of the LORD; he did not depart from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who had made Israel sin." (2 Kings 14:24; NKJV)

Consider the lasting influence of Jeroboam I and determine to live in such a way that you influence people for good.
