2 Kings 9

So, we will take a look at the life and lessons from King Jehu. Je-Who? No, Je-hu!

Jehu is a northern King whose reign lasts for a lengthy 28 years (and 2 chapters)! His reign is characterized by bloodshed and reform. God gives him a heavy responsibility to hold two difficult things in tension.

He is to be a king over God's people, AND be an instrument for God's vengeance on Ahab and Jezebel and their dynasty of destruction. Those are both challenging callings, and he is commended by God for doing what he did, but he had some issues along the way!

Spoiler alert: Pride, vengeance, and momentum make for a dangerous combination in life! Oh yea....and we see what becomes of the wicked queen Jezebel tonight!
