We have heard all the time of the suspension of the kings of those times, and not only of those times, but also this is happening at present.
As we can see we no longer call them kings but we use this word, president, although the word king is still used in some countries.
If we begin to read the word of God, we will find countless kings who ruled in those times and among them there were bad and good, these kings controlled nations giving death to anyone who prevented their conquest.
Jehoshaphat had riches and honor in abundance; and by marriage he allied himself with Ahab.
2 Chronicles 18:1
This is a story of a king of Israel named Ahab, who was deceived by a lying spirit that perched on the prophets allowed by God, and this was responsible for inducing Jehoshaphat to go to war without the authorization of God, believing so in each of the false words that those false prophets gave him, nevertheless this king of Israel understood that he needed the word of a true prophet.
The king asked if in that kingdom there was a true prophet who had a word from God, and finally was replied that there was one but he was never pleased with what he was prophesying, but Jehoshaphat answered him to send him to call and when the prophet Micaiah appeared before the kings he did as the Lord had spoken.
We can say that all the kings of the earth are placed by God and that one day they can also be taken away, but some of these kings think that they are placed by their social status and acquired knowledge. Currently there are many so-called presidents who think that they will never be removed from the position, but they are wrong, because there is one who put them on and who can also take them away.
The Lord removes kings and raises up kings
++++++++++++++++++++++
It is the Lord God almighty who manages and controls all things all over the world. He removes kings, and sets up kings, since He is the sovereign God, as the Word tells us.
“And he changes the times and the seasons: he removes kings, and sets up kings: he gives wisdom to the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding.”
(Daniel 2:21)
The Lord God has set up a limit to all men of this world and has given them freedom to act everywhere. He knows everything which happens and judges all mankind by their works.
So none can judge the Lord or guilt Him into the evil things men and women do on the earth.
Another thing is that the Will of God shall be fulfilled, and so he will punish the ungodliness of people all over the World. But He is gracious, long-suffering and merciful.
“But you, O Lord, are a God full of compassion, and gracious, long suffering, and plenteous in mercy and truth.” (Psalm 86:15)
He has chosen his people by grace and has sent his beloved Son into this World because he loves the World.
The Lord Jesus Christ is the warrant of all who believe in His name. (John 3:16)
He will judge all people by Jesus Christ, the Lord, on Judgement day.
Did you really have to bring political opinion to the beautiful words and study of the HOLY Gospels? I guess I need to find another source of inspiration.
