LETTER OF ELIJAH.

Centre verse (2 chronicles 21:12)"And they came a writing to him from Elijah the prophet, saying,thus saith the LORD God of David thy father, Because thou hast not walked in the way of Jehoshaphat thy father, nor in the way of ASA king of Judah."TEXT: 2Chronicles 21:5-17. Elijah the prophet who commanded fire and rain down at his prayers inscribed a letter to a bad and wicked king Jehoram the son of good king Jehoshaphat. The letter was that of judgement and death because he renounced God and directed the chosen people of Judah and Jerusalem into wickedness and sin. You have to realise that if you abandon God, evil will pursue you. King Jehoram had a holy prophet of God from whom he could seek counsel but he decided to be an enemy of God to rebel against the God of his father, Jehoshaphat. Many people reject the holy word of God. They prefer carefree lives,ungodliness, immoral relationships, robbery lifestyle, occultism and idolatry. The reality of life is that such people are full of tales of sorrows and woes. God is warning us today through prophet Elijah that if we follow the footpath of Jehoram, our sorrow will be terrible. If you are still a transgressor,God is waiting for your prayer of repentance. REMEBER THIS: You must know the true God,your Maker. Further Bible verse: Deuteronomy 31:16.
