"Come in thou wife of Jeroboam"
Said the prophet to the king's wife
She was disguised as another
To plea for her sick son's life
The prophet was old and couldn't see
So her costume was all in vain
Although she went through all that trouble
He called her by her name
The news was not good news
God was disappointed with the king
He had led Israel to sin
Not depending on God for anything
God had took all but one tribe
And gave it all to him
If he'd kept God's commandments
His life different would've been
But he was worried about his kingship
That the people might turn away
So he set up two cow idols
For them to worship am to pray
Trust in the Lord with all your heart (Prov 3;5)
Don't let doubt and fear creep in
Wait for his promises
Trusting your hands will end in sin
II Kings 14
